Geylang River

The Geylang River is a canalised river in Singapore's Central Region that runs from Geylang to Kallang. The river is currently a component of the Marina Reservoir, which was formed with the completion of the Marina Barrage in 2008.

Geylang River starts at Ubi as Geylang Canal, flows south under Eunos Road 5 and Sims Avenue, turns west after Geylang Road and Lorong 40 Geylang, but flows south again near Guillemard Road, before turning west again after the junction of Old Airport Road and Dunman Road, through Mountbatten Road and Stadium Way.

The river ultimately drains into the Kallang Basin near Tanjong Rhu, near the Tanjong Rhu Suspension Bridge, in the southern portion of Kallang. The Public Utilities Board (PUB) initiative revitalized the waterway while maintaining the unique legacy of the districts surrounding Geylang River, which was officially inaugurated by Guest-of-Honour Associate Professor Fatimah Lateef, Member of Parliament for Marine Parade Group Representation Constituency.

Geylang River was also deepened and broadened as part of the renovation to boost capacity and flood protection. A natural rain garden, which treats surface runoff using plants and soil, was also built up as part of Paya Lebar Quarter's Active, Beautiful, and Clean (ABC) Waters initiative to improve the river's water quality. It is one of the longest rivers in Singapore.
