  • Land Transport Masterplan
    LAND TRANSPORT MASTERPLAN MP-endpaperproposal.indd 8-9 2/18/08 6:18:47 PM For Singapore to realise its aspirations to be a thriving global city, its transport infrastructure is critical. Over the next 10 to 15 years, the transport system must support economic growth, a bigger population, higher expectations and more diverse lifestyles. With this in mind, we embarked on a comprehensive Land Transport Review in October 2006. We solicited and benefited from contributions from a broad spectrum of people including students, workers, employers, commuters, transport operators, ordinary Singaporeans and experts; at home and abroad. In total, more than 4,500 people contributed their time, energies and ideas to this review. The culmination of this effort is a Land Transport Masterplan that strives to make Singapore a great city to live, work and play in. This calls for major MINISTER’S changes to vastly improve our land transport system. It is a plan to build and develop a more people-centred transport system that is technologically intelligent, yet engagingly human. FOREWORD Singaporeans can look forward to a more integrated and user-friendly public transport system. Fast and reliable bus services will complement a greatly expanded rail network to bring people where they want to go quickly. Tree-lined sheltered walkways in the heartlands and bustling underground walkways filled with shops in the city will ensure a pleasant walk to bus and train stations for all commuters. Varied transport choices like premium buses, taxis and cycling will help to cater to different needs. With the construction of new expressways, island-wide connectivity will also be significantly improved.

Some cities such as Dallas, Los Angeles and Melbourne have already investigated the trends of urban air mobility and planned to launch its eVTOL in 2023. The consideration behind flying taxis in Singapore serves to smoothen traffic congestions in the central and industrial areas due to occasional traffic jams caused by road works or accidents, providing greater transportation convenience in a cosmopolitan city.

Wheaton Chairman, Interdepartmental Degree Program in Real Estate Development Determinants of Singapore Residential Land Value By Yean Pin Lee Submitted to the Department of Architecture on August 3, 2002 In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Real Estate Development ABSTRACT This empirical study investigates the factors that explain the variation in private residential land value in Singapore. In doing so, it determines the impact that land use zoning and plot ratio allowable have on residential land value. Previous empirical studies in the US and UK have found plot characteristics, accessibility and zoning variables to be important determinants of land value. However, these factors need to be examined within the specific economic, social and political context of different cities. In this study, these variables are employed to investigate whether the traditional determinants have similar significant impacts on the variation in residential land value in the dense and highly regulated Singapore land market.
