Preparatory Works for Long Island: Update by HDB

HDB updated its environmental study with more data on fish communities, horseshoe crabs and sea turtles. The impact on these 'unlikely to be significant'. Agencies will work closely with experts to explore measures to minimise harm to nesting turtles during the preparatory works.

Works will be conducted at least 130m away from the shoreline. Infill materials, which include sand, will be placed in a controlled manner using a pipeline system, minimising disturbance to shallow shoreline habitats. A timeline for when the works will commence has not been revealed.

HDB will explore creating suitable habitats along the future coastline to support turtle nesting, as well as future recruitment of coral larvae and seagrass fragments. It will also assess early transplantation of coral or seagrass communities ahead of the long-term plans for Long Island to allow more time for marine biodiversity to grow and thrive.

While the formal consultation period has closed, the public is welcomed to continue sharing feedback at this website. The next phase of public engagement is planned to start from end-2026.
