Cycle along the Eastern Corridor and explore various significant parks and gardens located in the east of Singapore with half of the route located along waterways. It is a great route to head out and explore the green space in the east of Singapore.
The Eastern Corridor is an 18 km route that is made up of a number of park connectors that provide access to multiple parks. It has been progressively completed since first being announced back in 2021.
The route stretches from East Coast Park Area G, one of the most “ulu” spots along East Coast Park, proceeding northwards along the Bedok Canal and leading to Bedok Reservoir Park.
From there, the Eastern Corridor then extends to Pasir Ris where it ends off.
The series of park connectors will take users past waterways that have been enhanced under national water agency PUB’s Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters (ABC Waters) Programme.
This allows park users to enjoy a scenic cycling experience along waterscapes in the east.
Both ends of the Eastern Corridor – East Coast Park and Pasir Ris Park – both connect to the Round Island Route.
The Eastern Corridor also provides opportunities for the community to more easily explore the parks and nature areas of the East.
