Duxton Plain Park, Singapore

Duxton Plain Park, Singapore (29 July 2017)

Duxton Plain Park (GPS: 1.2785, 103.84137) is a long, narrow and curved park between New Bridge Road and Yan Kit Road. It got its rather unusual shape from the fact that it was once railway track. Until the Malayan Railway realigned its track in the 1930s, the track passed through here on its way to the terminus at Tanjong Pagar.

The railway tracks used to go north towards Orchard Road. They have long been removed, and in their place is this strangely shaped park. It can accessed from New Bridge Road, Keong Saik Road, Neil Road, Craig Road and Yan Kit Road.

Taking the MRT to Duxton Plain Park
