SINGAPORE — A new bridge for wildlife and pedestrians will be built across Upper Bukit Timah Road by 2026 to link Bukit Batok Nature Park to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve via the Rail Corridor to expand wildlife habitat.
SINGAPORE — A bridge for wildlife and pedestrians will be built across Upper Bukit Timah Road by 2026 to link Bukit Batok Nature Park to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve via the Rail Corridor.
Planning for the latest bridge is still underway, so it is not yet possible to specify the exact location of the bridge, the board added. “The new bridge is designed for dual pedestrian-wildlife use and will provide the public with seamless connectivity between the two green spaces,” NParks explained.
Rope bridges installed along Old Upper Thomson Road have been used by the critically endangered Raffles banded langur, The Straits Times reported in 2020. Between 2018 and 2021, the Eco-Link@BKE demonstrated its effectiveness as 31 previously undocumented fauna species were observed on the bridge, with the numbers continuing to rise, NParks said.
