20 LANDSCAPE STRATEGY

21 RE-INTRODUCTION OUR NATURAL HERITAGE Taman Jurong before industrialization, Source: Taman Jurong Constituency office Proposed trees taken from Corner s Survey of Jurong; Source: E. J. H. Corner, The Freshwater Swamp Forest of South Johore and Singapore, per cent of respondents appreciated the place for its tranquility, and 22 per cent wanted more wildlife habitats in the park. - Straits Times 29 Apr 12

22 LANDSCAPE ZONES Existing Site Conditions Primary Forest Walk A. FRESHWATER SWAMP (FOREST) B. WILDLIFE CORRIDOR C. SUMMIT WALK D. STREAM RAVINE FOREST Low Wetland Forest

23 OVERVIEW Design Approach CONCEPTUAL STRATEGY an urban front + a park front for every building PARK FRONT URBAN FRONT PARK FRONT

24 FOREST STRATEGY Green Core Tree Statistics TOTAL NUMBER OF EXISTING TREES 606 NUMBER OF TREES TO BE FELLED 389 NUMBER OF TREES TO BE RETAINED 217 NUMBER OF TREES TO BE PLANTED 1720 TOTAL NUMBER OF TREES IN GREEN CORE AFTER CONSTRUCTION EXISTING 606 PLANNED 1937 INCREASE PERCENTAGE 320%

25 BIODIVERSITY STRATEGY Successional Plant Strategy SLOW GROWING SPECIES PIONEER TREE SPECIES SHRUBS/GROUNDCOVER_SUN/SHADE SHRUBS/GROUNDCOVER_SUN Establishment Fast growing, sun tolerant pioneer species provide shade for the propagation and establishment of the emergent plants. Adaptation The emergent grows quickly under the shade of the mature pioneers and shade tolerant shrubs/groundcover succeed the sun-loving undergrowths Maturity The emergent trees project above the pioneers. Pioneer shrubs die back and make way for shrub/groundcover for shade loving plants.

26 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

28 Phase 1 B, Stream Ravine: Removal of extended areas of debris and marine clay before cutting of Bio Swale, partial soil exchange, topping, mixing with topsoil (7 th August 2012)

29 STORMWATER STRATEGY Stormwater Run-off Collection (including roads) Catchment area captured in central wetland 69.34% Core % Roadside drain (from plot) % Roadside drain (from road) 13.12% Catchment area lost to perimeter drain 30.65%
