Siglap Canal River
Siglap Canal River has a drainage area in Bedok, Marine Parade. The Siglap Canal River is a lush, gorgeous body of water. A communal deck and rain gardens will be added to parts of the 3.2-kilometer canal. A 150-meter piece adjacent to the Kampong Kembangan Community Club will be decked up to accommodate activities like line dance and taiji.
PUB, the country's water agency, will collaborate with Telok Kurau Primary School to create a rain garden and a rooftop garden upstream. These aid in the cleaning of rainwater runoff before it enters the canal. It's also constructing a detention tank to assist minimize peak rainwater flows into the drainage system.
These additional elements were introduced during the project's groundbreaking event, which was attended by four of Marine Parade GRC's five MPs, including Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong and Acting Manpower Minister Tan Chuan-Jin, who was the guest of honor. Between Bedok Reservoir Road and the sea near East Coast Beach is the Siglap Canal River. It is one of the longest rivers in Singapore.
