Once home to brickmaking factories, and later used for military training, the 2.7- square-mile site has been reclaimed by a forest in recent years. A 328-foot-wide ecological “corridor" will be maintained through its center, providing safe passage to wildlife and connecting a water catchment area on one side to a nature reserve on the other.The project has proven a new plan for urban planners supporting green design principles and “smart" technology, according to Chong Fook Loong, group director for research and planning at Singapores Housing and Development Board, the agency overseeing the countrys public housing. “Tengah is a new start," he said in a video interview, explaining that roads and parking are being pushed beneath the town center. " We re going for the ideal concept of separated traffic, with everything underground and then the ground level totally freed up for pedestriansfor people. So, its a very safe environment for all.”“We want a town that allows walking and cycling in a very user-friendly manner,“ he added, saying that cycling has taken off” in Singapore in the “last three to five years especially".
