History of Pasir Panjang The name Pasir Panjang literally means "long sand" in Malay, a reference to the long sandy beach that stretched along the coast in this area. Pasir Panjang Road, laid down by the Government Surveyor of Singapore, John Turnbull Thomson, in 1841 and by 1850, it was extended as far as the Jurong River. This facilitated the development of a linear coastal settlement which stretches all the way to Clementi Road. Providing a backdrop to the coastal settlement was a hilly ridge running parallel to the coastline. A low saddle along the ridge (known subsequently as The Gap ) presented the opportunity to construct an inland road, which became today s South Buona Vista Road.
In the 1920s, many of the wealthy Chinese built holiday and residential bungalows along the coast, some of which are still visible today. In 1930, some of the Malay families from the Kallang River Basin area were resettled here when Kallang Airport was constructed. Pasir Panjang was also a British defence position in the south and was a key battle site in World War II. Developments in the area took place mainly after the war was over. In the 1950s, the area began to take on a suburban character as bungalows were built along the coastline, fronting the sea. Since the late 1960s, the coastal area at Pasir Panjang has been reclaimed for wharves and is almost entirely devoted to containerisation. The Pasir Panjang Terminal of the Port of Singapore is also located here.

RAMPING UP PUBLIC TRANSPORT Getting around Singapore by rail will become easier and faster with the continued expansion of the MRT network through the following projects: The Thomson Line (TSL) will open in phases starting from 2019, connecting key areas such as Bishan and Toa Payoh to the CBD. The Downtown Line (DTL), to be operational by 2016, will cut travel time from Bukit Panjang and Bukit Timah to the city. The Circle Line Stage 6 (CCL6), which will be completed by 2025, will close the Circle Line loop by allowing direct journeys between Harbourfront and Marina Bay stations. The Eastern Regional Line (ERL) is expected to be ready by 2022 and will enhance public transport access in established housing areas such as Marine Parade.
6 STOPS to Marina Bay! Commuters will enjoy a direct route between key employment areas in the Central Business District, as well as the upcoming developments in the Marina Bay area as well as retail and office centres in the HarbourFront area. Transfers to other rail lines via the Circle Line will also be much shorter. For instance, a commuter going from Kent Ridge to Marina Bay today has to make two MRT transfers via three lines. With the closed loop of the Circle Line, he can reach his destination in a single train ride, and enjoy about 15 minutes of time saving.
MORE FUN AND GREEN SPACES IN THE CENTRAL REGION Expanding the Southern Ridges With the opening of the Labrador Nature & Coastal Walk on 2 Jan 2012, nature lovers can now connect seamlessly from the Southern Ridges to Labrador Nature Reserve. Step onto Berlayer Creek, a boardwalk which is part of Labrador Nature & Coastal Walk, constructed beside a natural mangrove creek. Then go on to Bukit Chermin boardwalk where you can enjoy views over the waters of Keppel Bay. The public promenades along the condominiums of Reflections and Caribbean at Keppel Bay will lead you to Keppel Island where a new waterfront park overlooking Sentosa will be developed. Labrador Nature and Coastal Walk
CYCLING OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL Getting around the Central Region on your bicycles will be a breeze in future with the proposed cycling network. You can access cycling paths to get to the city or a neighbouring town, such as from Bukit Merah to Queenstown, or ride your bikes onto a park connector to get to your favourite parks such as Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park. If you are feeling adventurous enough to go further, use the Round Island Route to see heritage areas in the city or coastal areas in other parts of the island.

Marina South, located next to Bay South Garden and the Straits of Singapore, will set a new standard for sustainable urban living. Imagine an urban village characterised by city streets with corner shops, cafes, grocery stores, barbers and beauty salons. All these within a short walk or bicycle ride. The village main street is free of cars. Children play safely as parents shop or dine outdoors. Residential communities are planned as Street Neighbourhoods where residents have opportunities for face-to-face contact. Walking and cycling are the choice modes to move around with shaded walks and dedicated bike paths.
Mixed-Use and Lively Streets It will be a residential district with a difference. Mixed-use ensures a variety of commercial and community uses are at the doorstep. Shops, grocers, delis, clinics, salons and work spaces will be located on the street level of developments with residences on the upper levels. Its streets are planned as active, outdoor living rooms for the community. Street corners with convenience stores become meeting points for the community. Walking is a Stroll in the Park, Cycling is a Breeze There will be sheltered connections for pedestrians to walk comfortably to any destination, underground, above ground, and at street level. Streets connect the network of courtyards, playgrounds, and ground floors of mixed-use and residential developments. Adults and children can cycle safely on dedicated cycling paths around the district. More Homes in the City Centre Marina South will be a mixed-use, high-density residential district that provides more options for city living. This means that more people can live near their work place. Better Transport Connectivity From any point in Marina South, a 5-minute walk will be all it takes to reach a public transport node. Making the city lively without cars will be possible with the intricate network of MRT lines, cycling paths and pedestrian walkways serving the district.
