How towns are planned
Our towns are planned with a comprehensive range of facilities to meet the needs of current and future residents. These include housing, shops, schools, libraries, sports facilities, community clubs and parks – all important in ensuring a liveable, self-sufficient town. The facilities are carefully distributed across each town to ensure good accessibility, supported by an efficient transport network. Most towns also have commercial nodes and other employment centers such as industrial estates and business parks within the town or nearby, to provide job opportunities close to homes. These facilities and employment centers will be developed according to demand.
The detailed planning and implementation of plans for each town is a joint effort of many government agencies.
Housing: Better living through a better environment
With a good range of amenities and proximity to the city and East Coast Park, Geylang and Marine Parade are highly popular housing locations. Future residents will have more choices as these two mature towns get rejuvenated in the coming years. More facilities will also be added to serve the needs of the growing community:
- A new civic centre, Wisma Geylang Serai, will be developed within the Geylang Serai precinct by 2017 to house a mix of community, cultural and arts-related facilities
- A future nursing home at Geylang East Central will be built to meet the needs of our elderly
- More retail options will be available at Paya Lebar Central
Transport: Quicker ways to travel
Residents in Geylang and Marine Parade can expect smoother and faster journeys with the following enhancements to the roads and public transport network:
- The Downtown Line will have 3 new MRT stations serving the Geylang area by 2017, namely Mattar, MacPherson and Ubi. MacPherson will also be an interchange station connecting with the Circle Line
- The Eastern Region Line (understudy), expected to be completed by 2020, will give a tremendous boost to the public transport connectivity of Marine Parade and slash travel times to the city and Changi
- Ongoing road widening works along Sims Way, Mountbatten Road and Fort Road will support the upcoming development in the area
- A new vehicular underpass at the junction of Sims Way and Mountbatten Road will facilitate the flow of traffic exiting Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) towards the city and the Sports Hub
Leisure: New reasons to be outdoors
Those living in Geylang and Marine Parade do not have to travel far for their daily dose of the outdoors. Not only do they have East Coast Park within easy reach, they also have access to a number of smaller parks and an extensive network of park connectors. By 2030, most residents will be living within just 400m of a park or park connector as greening efforts continue:
- More neighborhood parks will be provided at various locations
- A new park connector will be built between the Paya Lebar and Eunos MRT stations, with a future extension towards Geylang River
Other developments that will further promote outdoor activities include:
- An expansion of the cycling network
- Improvements at Geylang River under PUB’s Active, Beautiful, Clean (ABC) Waters programme. For instance, the existing concrete canal from Dunman Road to Guillemard Road will be enhanced with more greenery and new communal spaces
- The upgrading of Haig Walk under the Estate Upgrading Programme (EUP)
Economy: Nurturing a growth center and creating jobs
New commercial developments will continue to come onstream over the next few years, offering exciting opportunities for new businesses and bringing jobs closer to homes.
Many new developments will be sprouting up in and around Paya Lebar Central, a new sub-regional center. A number of projects are already underway, including the Workforce Development Agency’s (WDA) Continuing Education and Training (CET) Campus East, Paya Lebar Square and One KM. Future commercial development has also been made available at Tanjong Katong Road/Sims Avenue.
