Park Connectors
List of Park Connectors | Network Progress Plan
The Park Connector Network is an island-wide network of linear open
spaces that link up major parks, nature sites and housing estates
in Singapore. When the entire network is completed, it will form a
green network, spanning over 300 km across the whole island, making
it convenient to travel from park to park.
The park connectors vary in length, ranging from about 2 km to 10
km, making them ideal for those who like to take short walks to
exercise, as well as to cater to cyclists who prefer longer
distances. They are usually found alongside the many rivers and
canals that flow through the island and are often used as
convenient shortcuts to housing estates, MRT stations, and
schools.
The park connector optimises the use of land such as drainage
reserves, foreshore and road reserves by turning them into
beautiful green corridors for recreation.
And green corridors they certainly are! Fringed by lush landscaping
on one side, and the river on the other, the park connectors' long
stretches of paved tracks make for an enjoyable and safe walk or
cycling trip, away from the hustle and bustle of traffic noise and
exhaust fumes. Look up among the trees and shrubs, and you would
probably see colourful birds and butterflies flitting among the
greenery that line the park connectors. The park connector brings
one close to nature, yet it is not far from urban areas as
well.
