INTRODUCTION

The Southern Ridges are a 9-km chain of hills stretching from Mount Faber Park through Telok Blangah Hill Park to Kent Ridge Park.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority of Singapore is seeking design ideas for two bridges and walkway that will link up the hills and give users a different experience to enjoy the expanse of the parks at the Ridges.

The two bridges consist of:

a. Henderson Crossing
This bridge will span across Henderson Road and the steep slopes to connect Mount Faber Park to Telok Blangah Hill Park.

b. Alexandra Link
This bridge will span across Alexandra Road and continue eastward as a walkway to skirt around the Public Utilities Board (PUB) Reservoir and link to Telok Blangah Hill Park. The bridge will also have a ramp on each side of Alexandra Road to link to the sidewalk at Hyderabad Road and to the park land at Gillman Village.
