INTRODUCTION
The Southern Ridges are a 9-km chain of hills stretching
from Mount Faber Park through Telok Blangah Hill Park
to Kent Ridge Park.
The Urban Redevelopment Authority of Singapore is seeking
design ideas for two bridges and walkway that will link
up the hills and give users a different experience to
enjoy the expanse of the parks at the Ridges.
The two bridges consist of:
| a. |
Henderson
Crossing |
|
| |
This bridge will
span across Henderson Road and the steep slopes
to connect Mount Faber Park to Telok Blangah Hill
Park. |
| |
 |
| b. |
Alexandra
Link |
|
| |
This bridge will
span across Alexandra Road and continue eastward
as a walkway to skirt around the Public Utilities
Board (PUB) Reservoir and link to Telok Blangah
Hill Park. The bridge will also have a ramp on each
side of Alexandra Road to link to the sidewalk at
Hyderabad Road and to the park land at Gillman Village. |
