Integration of Kallang River area and Bishan Park in 2011

SINGAPORE: The Kallang River area bordering Bishan Park will be widened and converted into a meandering river to integrate with the park in 2011.

The move is all part of the PUB's ABC Waters Programme for 'Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters'.

Under the programme, the Kallang River will be developed and serve as an attraction where recreational and communal bonding activities can take place.

Besides transforming the Kallang River, the programme will also see the addition of a River Promenade for events and three new playgrounds.
