Objective
To identify a location suitable for building a national Communicable Disease Quarantine Centre. The selected site must be located at Gombak planning subzone and with a contiguous area of at least 10,000 m2.
The Gombak planning area extracted from the “Master Plan 2014 Subzone Boundary from URA” matches the requirement as the Gombak planning area is 2459098 m2. There are a series of decision factors that we will need to take into account as well:
- Economic Factor: Selected site should avoid steep slope as construction on a steep slope will involve a lot of cut-and-fill and will lead to relatively higher development cost
- Accessibility Factor: Selected site should be close to existing local roads (service roads & tracks). This is to ensure easy transportation of building materials during the construction stage.
- Health Risk Factor: Selected site should be away from the population to avoid disease from spreading to nearby population
- Natural Conservation Factor: Selected site should be away from forested land, park and water
The following map will display the Gombak Planning Subzone with the present road networks, buildings as well as natural spaces.
