Ponggol Park – Ponggol Riverside to Punggol Point (Singapore)

on December 17, 2011

In the move to be self-sufficient as far as water needs are concerned in Singapore, the Government decided to dam up the estuary from Serangoon and Ponggol with Pulau Serangoon (affectionately known as Coney Island) to form the Serangoon and Ponggol Reservoirs. In doing so, the Ponggol Park was formed along the river walk.

Bridge to Lorong Halus Wetland which is built on top of a former landfill.

Crossing the Forbidden Zone

End of the Dam and beyond that is Johor

Johor can be seen from a distance. It does appear that this is one of the point in Singapore where it is probably less than a 2km swim to Johor.

Is that a bomb ?
