Withthenewplansandadditionsofdistrictsandurbanqualities,North CoastwillbetransformedintoavibrantandaccessibleGreaterNorthern Waterfront.
2030
•FirstphaseofNorthCoast VistaDriveconstruction
•WoodlandsNorthBusiness District
•SembawangShipyard RecreationDistrict(after remediationworks)
•NorthSouthCorridor completed
2040
•SecondphaseofNorthCoast VistaDriveconstruction
•SenokoRedevelopment (afterMicronremediation works)
•SembawangRedevelopment (areaaroundSAFCampand Marina)

Closing PlacingNorthCoastinthe North’sResilience
PlanningoftheGreaterNorthernWaterfrontwillfurtherstrengthenthe NorthRegion’sroleinSingapore’sresilience,especiallyintheseaspects:
EnvironmentalResilience
ExtensionoftheecologicalcorridortowardstheNorthCoastfromMandai andCentralWaterCatchment,whichenhancesthemovementoffloraand faunaandpromotesbiodiversity,contributingtotheoverallecological resilienceintheNorthRegion.
IndustrialandEconomicResilience
