Private landowners and long-term lessees along parts of Singapore’s coastline may need to put in place their own coastal protection measures in the coming years. By 2100, waves crashing on Singapore’s shores could reach up to five metres. PUB said most of the affected landowners and lessees are located on the southwest coast, such as the Tuas and Pioneer industrial estates. Private players occupy some 30% of Singapore’s coastline. PUB will also launch a code of practice in the middle of this year, which details the planning, design, operation and maintenance standards of coastal protection structures. Rachel Teng reports.
