Design Concept
Designed for the avid exercise-goer or simply for a family to take a stroll, the Promenade is conceived as a linear recreational and exercise trail with unobstructed, expansive views of the Johor Straits. The promenade will be kept shady by existing and planting of new trees.
A 9 ha coastal Park by the Sea will be created, of which 3ha will be open in Phase 1, while the remaining park areas will open in Phase 2 in the later part of the year. About 6 ha of this former warehousing site will eventually be converted into green spaces with lush planting for recreational uses. The design of the park also leverages on existing terrain and contours, forming varied spaces and interesting views. The park will be a major recreational destination that capitalizes on the sea frontage. Sufficient outdoor spaces will be created to accommodate various sports activities and community events amongst other possible recreational uses.
For Phase 1, the park has 4 distinctive areas open to the public – the Picnic Green to the west of the jetty, the Event Space in the centre, the refurbished Jetty Walk to the north, and the rugged Playground and exercise area to the east.
