Update on public feedback: Thumbs up to URA's Plans
The public has given
a resounding thumbs-up to the URA’s Parks and Waterbodies Plan and
Identity Plan. The public has given their feedback through survey
forms at the exhibition at The URA Centre and online, from 23 July
to 22 October 2002. Click here
for an update on the feedback received.
The exhibition attracted a record number of
more than 35,000 visitors in the three months’ period, of which
about 13,400 were online visitors. About 4,200 of these visitors
submitted their feedback to the URA through survey forms, emails
and letters, with some 97 per cent giving their endorsement to the
proposals in the plans. The exhibition at The URA Centre and our
virtual exhibition will remain open for viewing until Feb 03.

Quality housing, efficient transportation, green
spaces, historic buildings, lively neighbourhoods and a modern Central
Business District (CBD). We have all these necessary ingredients for good
living, thanks to effective urban planning.
But
are these enough?
Many
of us wish to live in a city not just to make a living.
We also aspire to live in a city that is unique, exciting, and offers
an appealing lifestyle and a good quality of life.
Most importantly, many of us hope to live in a city that we can feel rooted
to.
A
city that holds shared memories and binds its people emotionally to the
land. With unique yet familiar places where we have lived, worked and
played. Places, streets and neighbourhoods which we not only can remember
with fondness, but can also proudly point out to our future generations.
And....
A
city in a lush tropical garden with many places of nature and greenery
for people to enjoy.
How can people's aspirations be met?
With
