Punggol Waterway Landscape Masterplan Design Competition

Under the Punggol vision "A Waterfront Town of the 21st Century", the new waterway runs along the East-West Corridor of Punggol Town and links up the Reservoirs at Sungei Punggol and Sungei Serangoon to form an enlarged water body thereby bringing water closer to people.

The proposed Waterway will meander through the town and create a delightful waterfront environment for all. There will be promenades on both sides of the Waterway where residents can go for a leisurely stroll or bicycle ride. In addition, the Waterway will allow more opportunities for water-based recreational activities and sports, right next to the homes.


Competition Details

The design competition will incorporate the water-based sports and leisure activities with the following:

- Landscape design for the 4.2km waterway and two tributaries (1.3km)
- A 10m wide promenade on both sides of the waterway
- Town Park

It will also include the integration and connectivity of pedestrian bridges, water features, common greens and facilities to the overall landscape masterplan of the waterway.

The aims to draw fresh, innovative and new ideas on the landscaping of the Waterway, the landscape Masterplan Design Competition (details for requirement) was launched on 17 May 08 during the "Shaping My Punggol" Exhibition. The submission had closed on 16 September 2008.
