Sungei Serangoon

Sungei Serangoon is a river in Singapore's northeastern region. The 8-kilometer river begins as a canal at Tampines Road and travels through Hougang, where it is joined by stream Sungei Pinang right before Sengkang, before continuing on to Lorong Halus, where it is joined by another tributary, Sungei Blukar, before emptying into Serangoon Harbour.

The Sungei Serangoon Estuary is another name for the river. The river has been turned into a reservoir, Serangoon Reservoir, since 2011. Despite the fact that portions of the river have been canalized at Hougang and Lorong Halus, the river's fauna has been mostly undisturbed. Herons, terns, and kingfishers may still be seen along the river. The area near Lorong Halus is regarded as one of Singapore's premier bird-watching places. Near the banks, monitor lizards and occasionally otters can be spotted.

A 2.2-kilometer jogging track (known as the Serangoon Park Connector) runs along the river's western bank at Hougang. Despite its proximity to residential areas, this stretch of ground is home to a variety of garden, grassland, and estuary birds.

Sungei Serangoon has completed a number of development projects, including the building of an overhead bridge connecting Old Tampines Road and the KPE expressway to Sengkang and a metal bridge connecting Punggol East and Lorong Halus. It is one of the longest rivers in Singapore.
