RESIDENTS in western Singapore can look forward to a wide array of exciting recreational experiences with the completion of the Western Adventure Park Connector Network (PCN) in 2015 as part of a plan to make nature sites more accessible.

The 23-km PCN joins eight parks in western Singapore - namely Choa Chu Kang Park, Villa Verde Park, Zhenghua Park, Dairy Farm Nature Park, Bukit Batok Nature Park, Bukit Batok Town Park, Limbang Park and Bukit Panjang Park.

It is the second loop of park connectors to be completed, after the Eastern Coastal PCN in December 2007. Five more loops of park connectors are in the pipeline.

Once completed, the park connectors will form a 300-km green matrix connecting major parks and nature sites all over the island, giving users a choice of landscapes and distances for recreation.

Mr Gan Kim Yong, Minister for Manpower and MP for Chua Chu Kang SMC, officially launched the Western Adventure PCN on Sunday as part of Clean and Green Singapore.

He walked a 1.8 km scenic stretch of Pang Sua Park Connector with 1,000 residents, accompanied by MPs for Hong Kah GRC, Dr Amy Khor and Mr Alvin Yeo.
