land constraint (2) - urban planning in Singapore



One of the challenges of urban planning in Singapore is the arrangement of housing blocks in the maximum density possible, without compromising transport efficiency.

Urban planning in Singapore has formulated and guided its physical development from the day the modern city-state was founded in 1819 as a British colony to the developed, independent country it is today. Urban planning is especially important due to land constraints and its high density.
