SINGAPORE: The Housing and Development Board (HDB) has announced plans to enhance the Republic's East Coast area as part of the "Remaking Our Heartland" (ROH) programme, following the completion of the Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre, Bedok Integrated Transport Hub and Bedok Mall.
In a media release, HDB said work on an Outdoor Play Corridor, which provides cycling and pedestrian paths connecting Bedok Town Centre to East Coast Park and Bedok Reservoir Park, will commence in the second half of this year.
A cycling network within East Coast, which will connect MRT stations, schools and Neighbourhood Centres (NCs), will be completed by the first half of 2017. In addition, a heritage trail, which will highlight the heritage sites in the Bedok and East Coast areas, will be completed by the first half of 2016, HDB said.
ROH plans for East Coast also include eight NCs within Bedok Town. New features planned for the NCs include entrance markers, community plazas, floor retiling, playgrounds, mini pavilions, as well as street furniture and lighting unique to each NC.
Upgrading works at Chai Chee and Fengshan NCs are underway, while the rest are under various stages of implementation and are on track for completion by next year, the media release stated.
The opening ceremony for the Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre will be held on Sunday (Jan 11). At the same time, a groundbreaking ceremony will be held for the upcoming Bedok Town Plaza and Heritage Corner - which will be built on the site of the previous hawker centre located at Block 207 Upper Changi Road.

The Christchurch City Council is banning lighting of outdoor fires across all areas of the city from this weekend.
"A restricted fire season has been in place for rural parts of the city and Banks Peninsula since December 21 but, given the ongoing dry conditions, there will be a total ban introduced from the weekend," says Murray Sinclair, Christchurch City Councils Manager Civil Defence and Emergency Management.
The ban comes into effect from midnight on Saturday 10 January 2015.
Outdoor fires are already banned in urban areas of the city.
People can use gas barbecues as long as they are careful and have access to a reliable water supply, Mr Sinclair says.
"The ban applies to lighting of fires and using charcoal barbecues and other devices that use solid fuel," Mr Sinclair says.
"One of the biggest risks is from sparks, so we ask people to take extra care when mowing lawns. In the heat of the day, it doesnt take much for a spark from a mower hitting a stone to turn into a significant fire. Because of the dry conditions, people should do their mowing early in the day when there is still moisture from any dew, or on overcast days."
The fire bans will remain in place until further notice.

Stylish, comfy and inviting outdoor furniture is a must to help you take full advantage of the warmer weather. Here, four experts share their top tips for choosing alfresco furnishings, and the hot trends to update your outdoor living space this season.
Freedom Ms Lambkin said the trend for outdoor spaces that flow on seamlessly from inside the house was stronger than ever.
"The veranda or patio is becoming an extra room in the house and customers are looking to take the design elements from the indoor dining and living, outdoors," she said. "Australians spend so much time outdoors, so this is key space for entertaining and enjoying the seemingly endless summer."
Ms Lambkin said outdoor sofas were increasingly popular, part of a shift towards more casual alfresco entertaining.
When it came to trends, timber was ever-popular. "Timber furniture is always timeless, so for this season we have combined the beauty of teak with a cast aluminium frame to create the simple but elegant Adelphi dining setting," she said.
"The trends are for functional but beautiful pieces that create the perfect background for easy outdoor living."

Outdoor fire permits needed as risk increases
Across the region people are enjoying a warm, dry start to 2015 but with this comes an increase in fire risk. Aucklanders are being urged to carefully manage all outdoor fires.
A restricted fire season for rural areas in the Auckland region is still in place which allows lighting of outdoor fires on rural land but a permit is required for fires in the open air. A total fire ban is now in place for all Hauraki Gulf Islands.
The hot and dry summer means risks of vegetation fires are higher so people needed to be vigilant around their properties, clearing easily flammable fuel such as dry leaves and debris. Council will be issuing fire permits in Aucklands rural zones free of charge but people are advised to plan ahead as permits take three to five days to issue.
Conditions are very warm, dry and windy for this time of year and last week there were a number of fire incidents around the region, says Auckland Council Principal Rural Fire Officer Bryan Cartelle.
The councils rural fire team advised people to be aware of the conditions and check before lighting outdoor fires in urban areas as well, including any non-gas barbecues.
When lighting a fire think of your neighbours and check our fire safety requirements and whether the fire is allowed in an urban area.
In late December 2014, Auckland Council introduced an Outdoor Fire Safety Bylaw to manage the risk of all outdoor fires in both rural and urban areas. The bylaw continues with seasonal restrictions but also gives guidance on the types of fire and fuel allowed with an aim to protect people, property and the environment from the risk of fire.
By the time Duke Energy Progress announced last fall that it would begin replacing more than 100,000 mercury vapor street lights with LEDfixtures, Carthage was already enjoying the cost savings from converting.
We were the first to do it in Moore County, Town Manager Tom Robinson said Monday. I was real proud of little Carthage to be a leader.
The $9,250 project started last May, and 424 street lights were converted by the end of June.
They were done quickly, said Dina Tharp, the towns administrative assistant. Everything went smoothly. Weve had nothing but positive feedback. Everyone is happy with the new lighting.
Duke Energy Progress announced its lighting modernization program last September after receiving approval from the N.C. Utilities Commission to begin replacing mercury vapor street and area lights with advanced light emitting diode, or LED.
Weve heard from our customers that they want more energy-efficient lighting options and we want to be responsive, Emily Henson, the utilitys director of outdoor lighting, said at the time. Weve designed a lighting option that is both efficient and economical. In most instances, there will be no additional cost to the lighting customer as a result of the fixture replacements. Many customers will actually experience a price decrease.
Robinson said Carthage is saving $3,464 annually, which will help the town crawl back toward break-even.
Weve been operating at a deficit for the past six or seven years, he said. Were trying to live within our means, and that certainly helps. The new lighting is much better than the old lighting. Were being good stewards of the towns money and improving services at the same time.
Duke Energy Progress sought feedback from large outdoor lighting customers, including municipalities, in developing its mercury vapor replacement strategy. The utility also worked closely with the N.C. League of Municipalities to provide LEDtechnologies at reasonable prices.
This initiative will bring advanced LEDlighting to many of the communities we serve, Henson said in a news release.
