Sheltered linkway to connect Tanjong Pagar CC to MRT station in a few years’ time
The new pathway will provide high covered crossings across four thoroughfares.
A new sheltered walkway is set to connect Tanjong Pagar Community Club to the Tanjong Pagar MRT station in the Central Business District. This walkway will link Cantonment Road to Exit A of the MRT station, providing residents of nearby developments with better access to public transportation. The project, announced during a National Day dinner, is part of the Land Transport Authority's Friendly Streets initiative, aiming to create safer and more convenient walking routes to key amenities.
The pathway will feature high covered crossings across four major roads and will complement an existing sheltered pathway to Cantonment station. Additionally, a new community youth hub will be established at 10 Seng Poh Road, offering young people gaming facilities, study areas, and mentorship in a secure environment. Minister of State for Manpower and Trade and Industry, Foo Cexiang, expressed confidence in Singapore's young generation, emphasizing the importance of unity and shared goals amid various societal challenges.
