  • 1 to Be Embargoed Till 25 February 2012, 10Am MEDIA FACTSHEET
    To be embargoed till 25 February 2012, 10am MEDIA FACTSHEET Park Connector Network Implemented by the National Parks Board (NParks), the Park Connector Network is an island-wide network of linear open spaces around major residential areas, linking up parks and nature sites in Singapore. It brings people closer to green spaces, enhancing recreational opportunities for all, and is an important part of our plans to transform Singapore into a ‘City in a Garden’. NParks has completed 200km of park connectors around the island, providing users with a network of green corridors and a wider choice of landscapes and distances for recreation. The North Eastern Riverine Loop is the fourth loop of park connectors developed by NParks after the Northern Explorer Loop (2010), Eastern Coastal Loop (2007) and Western Adventure Loop (2009). Over the next five years, the NParks plans to build another 100 km of park connectors. Three more loops of park connectors are in the pipeline. North Eastern Riverine Loop The 26km North Eastern Riverine Loop is situated in the Northeastern region of Singapore, which follows the natural coastline of Punggol Beach and the river banks of Sungei Punggol and Sungei Serangoon on the West and East side respectively. It encompasses Buangkok, Punggol, Hougang and Sengkang Towns. The loop consists of Punggol Park Connector (6.1km), Punggol Promenade (4.9km), Serangoon Park Connector (2.3km), Sungei Serangoon Park Connector (2.1km), Buangkok Park Connector (1.5km) and Punggol Waterway (8.4km – both ways). These park connectors serve to link four parks: Punggol Park, Punggol Waterway Park (along Punggol Waterway), Punggol Point Park (at Punggol Promenade) and Sengkang Riverside Park.

  • The Singapore Urban Systems Studies Booklet Seriesdraws On
    Biodiversity: Nature Conservation in the Greening of Singapore - In a small city-state where land is considered a scarce resource, the tension between urban development and biodiversity conservation, which often involves protecting areas of forest from being cleared for development, has always been present. In the years immediately after independence, the Singapore government was more focused on bread-and-butter issues. Biodiversity conservation was generally not high on its list of priorities. More recently, however, the issue of biodiversity conservation has become more prominent in Singapore, both for the government and its citizens. This has predominantly been influenced by regional and international events and trends which have increasingly emphasised the need for countries to show that they are being responsible global citizens in the area of environmental protection. This study documents the evolution of Singapore’s biodiversity conservation efforts and the on-going paradigm shifts in biodiversity conservation as Singapore moves from a Garden City to a City in a Garden. The Singapore Urban Systems Studies Booklet Series draws on original Urban Systems Studies research by the Centre for Liveable Cities, Singapore (CLC) into Singapore’s development over the last half-century. The series is organised around domains such as water, transport, housing, planning, industry and the environment. Developed in close collaboration with relevant government agencies and drawing on exclusive interviews with pioneer leaders, these practitioner-centric booklets present a succinct overview and key principles of Singapore’s development model. Important events, policies, institutions, and laws are also summarised in concise annexes. The booklets are used as course material in CLC’s Leaders in Urban Governance Programme.
