Singapore, SG
The Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-city has a total land area of 30 km2 and is planned for a population of 350,000 in collaboration with The World Bank. The Master Plan for the Eco-city was jointly developed by the China Academy of Urban Planning and Design, and the Singapore planning joint team led by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA). It strikes a balance between competing needs of the Eco-city, including social, economic and environmental needs. The Eco-city is planned to be compact, with a good mix of land uses. It is developed in a way that maximises the amount of residential, commercial and recreational space within walking distance from public transport, which will increase public transport ridership among residents and workers in the Eco-city. Each district in the Eco-city has amenities and jobs located close by. Local and centralized facilities serve the needs of residents in each neighborhood.
