These five corridors across our island have evolved into well-loved, delightful places with rich heritage and identity. They not only serve as important anchors of activities and movement but also link key neighbourhoods to the city centre.
The concept of Identity Corridors was first introduced in the Long-Term Plan Review and builds on our Identity Node initiative to retain distinctive neighbourhoods. Since 2002, we have recognised and progressively enhanced 18 identity nodes, such as Balestier and Holland Village.
We are now developing plans to enhance the five Identity Corridors, which includes creating meaningful public spaces as well as strengthening the walking and cycling infrastructure along them. Communities and designers will be invited to actively shape some of these corridors with us.
Indicate your interest in shaping Identity Corridors with us in this form so we can inform you of upcoming opportunities!
Home to both Singapore’s longest transit priority corridor and river, co-create new public spaces along the North-South Corridor and the Kallang River with us. More space will be freed up for new uses along the North-South Corridor, which offers the opportunity to create more lively streetscapes and meaningful community nodes. The Kallang River will continue to be revitalised with new homes and work places as well as see more seamless walking and cycling paths, such as the Bishan-to-City Links.
Sign up for ongoing engagements for the North-South Corridor and share your views through this online survey.
Designers and the community can contribute to creating more walkable and distinctive streets from Old Airport Road to Geylang Road as well as the Siglap and Bayshore areas. Along this corridor, the Geylang Serai Cultural Belt will also rejuvenate the area around Geylang Serai Market with a new festive plaza, a landmark archway and new cycling paths
There will be opportunities to co-vision with the community to shape activity nodes along the Rail Corridor, such as the Queensway area. We will continue to enhance access points and community spaces along the main 24 km-long corridor as well as guide any adjacent development plans to ensure they complement and contribute to its green character and experience. There are also plans to study the Old Jurong Line and Jurong Lake District, as part of this corridor.
More walking and cycling spaces could be introduced to encourage people to explore the different neighbourhoods along this corridor that runs along Zion – Kim Seng – Scotts – Newton – Moulmein – Balestier – Lavender – Crawford Roads.
An approximately 10km-long coastal promenade will connect Marina Barrage to the Southern Ridges. We will seek ideas from the public to shape the promenade into a distinctive public space that connects the Greater Southern Waterfront to its surrounding area.
