    Default URA release Singapore land use plan

    http://www.mnd.gov.sg/landuseplan/

    Download to read.

    To support this larger population, we need to (a) reclaim additional land; (b) develop some of our reserve land; (c) intensify new developments; and (d) recycle land with lower intensity uses such as old industrial areas and some golf courses to achieve higher land productivity.

    Land use and allocation in Singapore is governed by our Master Plan. The Master Plan 2008 is being revised and updated to support the Population White Paper. By 2030, more than half of our land (58%) will be allocated to uses which enable us to live, work and play in a high quality environment. These uses include housing, services and manufacturing jobs, facilities and amenities, as well as green spaces such as parks and nature reserves, essential services and utilities like water and electricity. 19% of our land will support mobility within Singapore and connectivity to the rest of the world. Another 19% of our land will be for our defence needs.

    Did you notice that there is a road leading to Pulau Ubin and Pulau Tekong in the plan.

    Looks like the northwest side still lots of greenery and spared most of the carnage. The population probably further squeezed in the east and northeast. More supply coming from the eastern front.

    It is a pity that the beaches at East Coast are not spared

    I think when they reclaim it will be a park or beach at 1st. take at least 10-yrs after reclaim to let soil settle.

    Anyway in the 40s the sea is at bedok camp side. they has since reclaim the land then.

    so I think can expect it to be a bigger green space on the east coast for the next 10yrs at least. dont expect so soon any GLS there.
