OFFICIAL OPENING of the MARINA BAY CRUISE CENTRE SINGAPORE the 28,000-Square-Metre Terminal Opens Its Doors to the Public with a Night of Festivities and Fireworks!
OFFICIAL OPENING OF THE MARINA BAY CRUISE CENTRE SINGAPORE The 28,000-square-metre terminal opens its doors to the public with a night of festivities and fireworks! Diamond Princess and Voyager of the Seas docked at the Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore on its official opening on 22 October 2012 Singapore, 22 October 2012 – The Marina Bay Cruise Centre Singapore (MBCCS) at Marina South officially opened today in a ceremony attended by Deputy Prime Minister Mr Teo Chee Hean. The purpose-built 28,000-square-metre terminal, which is operated by SATS-Creuers Cruise Services (SCCS), saw its first ship dock on 26 May this year and is set to welcome more vessels as Singapore cements its status as a regional cruise hub. The Singapore Tourism Board announced in 2011 that SCCS, a joint venture between SATS and Creuers del Port de Barcelona (Creuers), was appointed as the operator for the terminal for a ten- year term, with an option to extend for another five years. The combined experience of SATS – the leading provider of gateway services and food solutions in the region – and Creuers – the largest port operator in Europe – was a large contributing factor to SCCS being selected to take the terminal forward. “The official opening of MBCCS marks a significant development for both the cruise landscape in Singapore and the ASEAN region. Not only does it deliver an enhanced and seamless travel Page 1 of 3 experience for cruise passengers, the terminal also serves to further anchor Singapore’s position as an attractive homeport for cruise lines with its state-of-the-art facilities and proximity to the new Marina Bay precinct and Singapore Changi Airport. -

This paper explores how the distinc- tive planning systems in the two cities affect the local actions and help shape the physical environment and future scenarios. Two central city areas are investigated and taken as different Asian models for understanding the processes behind urban transformation. In Singapore, urban form making follows a top-down planning control system. In the 1990s, a new downtown plan was proposed at the reclaimed land, Marina South, using the concepts of through-block linkages, all weather comfort and sepa- rated multimodal pedestrian and transportation circula- tion. The ambitious plan is supported by the three tiers of Singapore’s urban planning system from the island-wide conceptual plan, district-wide land use plan to the site specific urban design guidelines. -
1 Coastal Protection
Notes for GE4211 Field Trip to Marina Barrage (2 Apr ‘18) Denitza Voutchkova 1 COASTAL PROTECTION Coastal protection is one of the priorities in dealing with climate change effects in Singapore (the other is “improving drainage”). Minimum land reclamation level in Singapore was raised from 3 to 4 m above mean sea level in 2011 to address the projected sea level raise under the 2nd Climate change study. Defense from erosion: 70-80% of Singapore’s coastline: either walls or stone embankment 30-20% is “natural”, e.g. sandy beaches and mangroves Developing appropriate coastal measures coastal engineering, wave dynamics, coastal morphology, and hydrodynamics. Figure 1 2011 distribution of seawalls (in orange) around Singapore (source: Lai et al 2015, uploaded to IVLE, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2014.11.006) Building and Construction Authority (BCA) has commissioned a study that will form the national framework for coastal protection measures (the Straits Times, Jan 5, 2018). The study started in 2013 and was initially planned to be completed by the end of 2017, but has been pushed back to the 2nd half of 2018. The reason for this delay was because “more time is needed to consider fresh input and to engage stakeholders, so coastal protection strategies will complement development plans” (the Straits Times, see link below). The study is undertaken by Surbana International Consultants & DHI Water and Environment.
