Stop At: 8 Marina Gardens Drive Marina Barrage, Singapore 018951 Singapore
The Marina Barrage is a dam in Singapore built at the confluence of five rivers. It provides water storage, flood control and recreation. The S$3 billion project turns Marina Bay and Kallang Basin into a new downtown freshwater Marina Reservoir - the country's 15th - with a catchment area that spans a whopping 10,000 hectares.
The Marina Barrage plays an important part in helping to alleviate flooding. During periods of heavy rain, a series of nine crest gates will be opened to release excess storm water into the sea when the tide is low. When the tide is high, seven giant pumps that are capable of pumping one Olympic-sized swimming pool per minute whirr into action, draining water into the sea.
The facility is also a showcase for Singapore’s push to be a greener country. The Solar Park, for instance, features one of the largest collections of solar panels in Singapore, with over 400 panels providing electricity needed for lighting at the barrage during the day.
