The enhancements will complement NPark\u2019s Labrador Nature Park network, the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s longer-term plans for the Greater Southern Waterfront, as well as Southern Ridges and Coast Identity Corridor, the National Parks Board (NParks) said.<\/p>\n
The parks will be collectively linked via curated trails, and the public can look forward to more experiences along the Southern Ridges and West Coast.<\/p>\n
Examples include nature-based interactions and more access to recreational features set amid nature, NParks said.<\/p>\n
Of the 13 parks, HortPark, Labrador Nature Park and West Coast Park will be enhanced into Destination Parks \u2013 large, regional parks with thematic identities and unique features.<\/p>\n
“We will also introduce new amenities thoughtfully, taking care to protect West Coast Park’s tranquil nature. For HortPark, we will make HortPark an even more inclusive, welcoming gardening hub where the community can gather and participate in hands-on programs,” said Mr Tan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
NParks conducted public engagement sessions from 2024 to 2025 on the proposed works for the 13 southwestern parks.<\/p>\n
From over 2,200 responses, NParks developed a draft masterplan that was shared with the community through pop-up booths across the 13 parks from November to December 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
