Botanic Gardens expansion

Singapore Botanic Gardens to be expanded with new parkland

Singapore's Botanic Gardens will be expanded with the addition of a new parkland.

National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan said a 9.8-hectare parkland at Tyersall Avenue will be added to the Gardens.

This parkland will form a seamless extension to the west of the Gardens, bringing the total area of the Botanic Gardens to almost 74 hectares.

And there will be a new arboretum on the parkland. The Tyersall addition is slated to be completed by 2012.
