PROJECT OBJECTIVE
Change Report
Identifying and evaluating changes in land uses between 2008 and 2014.
Evaluation of current Master Plan
Future planning for 2024
As Singapore aspires to be an age-friendly city that support and empower its residents regardless of age, our public and commercial settings and services should be made accessible to accommodate varying types of population so that we can promote diversity, inclusion and contribution in all areas of community life. With this in mind, our project aims and seeks to explore the current landscape and provide insightful analysis that is useful for future urban planning, such that it can be aligned with Singapore’s ongoing efforts to build an inclusive environment for all. Therefore, we will be delving deeper into the following areas:
- Community support and Health services:
- Community Centers
- Healthcare Facilities for all (i.e. NKF dialysis centres, clinics, hospitals)
- Elderly Care Services
- Child Care Services
- Leisure Amenities:
- Parks
- Malls
- F&B options (i.e. hawker centres)
- Safety Measures:
- Proximity of industrial parks to educational institutions
- Provision of Cycling lanes
Commuter Pattern
Identifying localised (intra-town) employments through understanding commuter pattern, and recognising challenges faced with occurrence of delocalised (inter-town) employments.
Site selection
With our analysis on the current Master Plan, we realised that there are existing gaps in the planning of land uses, and we are thus proposing the following recommendations that relevant authorities could consider:
Criteria to justify locations for new facilities/amenities
- Demographics of the residents based on age, race etc.
- Density and location of the population
- Expected growth and development in the future
