Visioning the North-South Corridor
The 21.5km North-South Corridor (NSC) is a multi-modal transportation corridor that will enhance connectivity from the northern region to the city, serving towns such as Sembawang, Yishun, Ang Mo Kio, Toa Payoh, Novena and Rochor.
The NSC also forms part of the 34 km Central Corridor, which is one of the island-wide recreational routes that NParks is curating to enable Singaporeans to be immersed in greenery and have more opportunities to explore our island and its green spaces. The Central Corridor is a key spine that will link recreational users to the Round-Island-Route, Coast-to Coast Trails and various other parks and park connectors.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) and National Parks Board (NParks) will be seeking public views on how the surface streets that will be freed up with the NSC can be enhanced further for accessibility, greenery, and recreational use by pedestrians, cyclists, commuters, and local communities.
Co-creating the NSC together!
To garner views and ideas for designing these accessibility, recreational features and amenities for community spaces, LTA and NParks has co-organised a series of public engagement workshops in various regions across the corridor over a period of about six months since July 2023.
The workshop sessions have been concluded. Thank you for your participation!

Pilot PCN Typology
To better enhance the user experience along our Park Connector Network, we are piloting a revised park connector typology that will segregate paths into pedestrians-only paths and shared paths on selected stretches that are sufficiently wide and used primarily for recreation, such as along canals and coastal routes.
Shared Path | Segregated / Separated Path | |
---|---|---|
This pilot will be implemented progressively from August 2022 along approximately 30km of park connector paths in: | ||
---|---|---|
• Changi Beach Park | ||
• Changi Bay PC | ||
• Coastal PC | ||
• East Coast Park | ||
• Pasir Panjang Park |
We will review the outcome of the pilot, including public feedback received, before deciding if this revised typology should be refined further and implemented at other park connectors.
