We might have missed this
if it weren’t for our taxi driver. Singapore recently completed a $17million
elevated wildlife bridge. It is 62 meters long and 50 meters wide. The bridge
connects Singapore’s largest primary and secondary forests, the Bukit Timah
Nature Reserve and the Central Catchment Area. Both had been separated by the
Bukit Timah Expressway since 1986. There is a dense hedge system, storm drains
and railings to hopefully keep wildlife off the expressway. The bridge is
planted to be a forested corridor between the two areas. Hope it works. People
will be kept out of there for a while to allow wildlife free use of the bridge.
