FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS BERLAYAR CREEK BOARDWALK CYCLICAL MAINTENANCE 3 JUNE 2026 TO 31 MARCH 2027

1. With the boardwalk currently inaccessible, what is the fastest way to get to Reflections at Keppel Bay from Labrador Park MRT Station?
You may wish to take the public transport along West Coast Highway or alight at Telok Blangah MRT Station; it is closer to Reflections at Keppel Bay in terms of walking distance.

2. Where is the next nearest shelter since the pavilion will be closed during this period?
The nearest shelter will be at Labrador Park MRT station.

3. What is this cyclical maintenance about?
We are conducting improvement works, which are in line with our cyclical maintenance cycle for boardwalks and shelters. The works include re-decking and ensuring structure stability of the boardwalk, replacement of railing and lights, and overall cleaning and painting of the boardwalk and pavilion.

4. Why does this cyclical maintenance need so long to be completed?
Berlayar Creek is one of the few unique mangrove habitats in Singapore and is part of Labrador Nature Park, a biodiversity-rich area buffering the Labrador Nature Reserve. Hence, improvement works need to be carried out sensitively and with more care and supervision to ensure minimum impact to the mangrove forest.

5. Will the mangroves along the boardwalk be affected by this cyclical maintenance?
There will be minimal disturbance to the mangroves as the works are limited to the footprint of the existing boardwalk. There will be no excavation or removal of vegetation in the mangrove. Noise will be kept to a minimum during the work duration, and all disposal of debris will be arranged to be taken off-site promptly.

6. Will there be new designs/features to the finished boardwalk?
 Due to the sensitive habitat at Berlayar Creek, it will be a one-to-one replacement of the current boardwalk as the current design serves to balance between environment protection and recreational needs.

7. Is cycling allowed on the boardwalk?
 Cycling is not allowed on the boardwalk as it poses a safety risk to visitors and may damage/loosen the planks.
