What is the successful experience of urban planning in Singapore?

First, highlight urban design and scientifically formulate conceptual planning.

The Singapore government attaches great importance to the compilation of urban development planning. In the early days of its establishment, it hired experts from the United Nations to formulate a conceptual development plan for the whole of Singapore with a high starting point and high quality in four years. As a master plan, the city master plan, city zoning plan and regulatory detailed plan have been worked out, which provides strategic guidance for urban spatial layout, transportation network and industrial development in the next 30-50 years.

Singapore's conceptual planning determines the constellation structure with the central area as the main body and the scientific spatial layout of group development, including urban planning such as green space system, landscape system and historic site protection. According to the structure of downtown-sub-center-sub-center, Singapore is divided into 55 communities for construction. The groups and communities have reasonable layout and complete functions, such as employment, transportation, leisure and residence. Residents can find jobs and spend money nearby, reduce the pressure of traffic in the city center as much as possible, and alleviate the dilemma of commuting traffic congestion. The scientific spatial layout has created a first-class living environment, and the life of Singaporeans has become more and more comfortable and convenient. In 2003, it was selected as the best city in the world by international organizations.

Second, create a unique city image and establish distinctive city characteristics.

The remarkable feature of Singapore's garden city planning is to attach importance to shaping a unique city image, which is mainly manifested in the styles of roads, water systems, buildings and greening. It is no exaggeration to describe the landscape and road construction in Singapore as breathtaking. When you get off the plane, it is refreshing to connect the wide Yingbin Avenue in the city center. In the wide green belts on both sides of streets and urban expressways, tropical plants with different shapes and colorful colors can be seen everywhere, which fully embodies the characteristics of tropical cities near the equator. Singapore's rivers and roads create the image of an island within an island.

Take the Singapore River as an example. Although it is only a small river with a length of 15 km, it has successfully opened up leisure places around the coast according to the twists and turns of the river and its tributaries. Not only the water is clear and the shore is green, but also Clark pier and many entertainment facilities have been built. Every day, boats in the river shuttle and tourists from both sides of the strait weave, making it a famous tourist and entertainment area in Singapore. Buildings in Singapore are limited by land resources. Most of them are high-rise buildings, and the landmark buildings are mainly concentrated in the lakeside central business floor in Singapore. They are novel, unique and magnificent buildings. Their beautiful architectural skyline and vertical contour lines give people a feeling of being in a European and American metropolis with a strong sense of the times.
