We are transforming Singapore's North-South Corridor

We’ve been awarded the master plan consultancy to design the North-South Corridor’s surface streets, an unprecedented 21.5km urban transformation project in Singapore.

Together with Ramboll, Cistri, Gehl, Participate in Design, and Camphora, we are reimagining a previously congested corridor into a ‘life’ reserve’, a seamless integration of public transport, active mobility, community-focused spaces, and greenery.

The North-South Corridor will introduce four key sections - a 6km Community-Industrial segment, a 7km Ecological Loop, a 5km People’s Wellness Corridor, and a 3.5km Cultural-Heritage Segment with more than 20 highlights to explore.

Seen as a ‘corridor for the nation’, the project will be co-designed with local communities and stakeholders through a series of public engagement sessions.

By incorporating Singapore’s vision of becoming a City in Nature, the corridor will connect neighborhoods through green transformations, aligning with existing parks and green spaces. These connections will be via new walking and cycling lanes which will create new green spaces, enhance urban ecosystems and biodiversity.

Designed for inclusivity, the North-South Corridor will reflect local culture and heritage by creating adaptable, public spaces that meet the present and future needs of local communities. To foster community connections, the corridor features a new public square along Rochor Road, sitting at an intersection between three neighborhoods: Little India, Kampong Gelam and Albert Street. These connections will be made accessible through the offering of dedicated pathways for pedestrians, cyclists, riders and public buses.

“We’re not just redesigning a road; we’re crafting a living, breathing space that will become a blueprint for future mobility and urban living, one that can inspire similar transformations in cities across the world. Together with the community, we are building a corridor that will grow and adapt with Singapore, ensuring our city remains resilient, inclusive, and vibrant for generations to come.”
