Upgrading Plans for Pasir Ris Park

Mr Zainal Sapari asked the Minister for National Development whether there are plans to upgrade Pasir Ris Park, given the projected increase in the estate's population due to new housing developments and, if so, what is the timeline for the proposed upgrade.

Mr Khaw Boon Wan: The National Parks Board will carry out some minor upgrading works at Pasir Ris Park this year. The works include improvements to the playground, drainage system, footpaths, turf and other park equipment and facilities.

In the longer term, the proposed coastal Round Island Route will link Pasir Ris Park with the Punggol Waterway, Changi Beach Park, Changi Boardwalk and the Eastern Coastal Loop of the Park Connector Network. When completed, it would diversify and enhance the park and recreational experience for all Pasir Ris residents.
