2021-09-22 13:05:17 Do you know where you can find Singapore’s first-ever park connector?

Answer: it runs along Singapore’s longest river! The Kallang Park Connector was officially opened in August 1992, marking the start of the network of greenways around our city that’s today known as the Park Connector Network (PCN).

If you enjoy cycling, jogging or strolling along park connectors, look out for more – we plan to further expand the PCN network to 500km of park connectors by 2030! Open / Comment
