Upper
reach of the Pandan River
The concretized canal stretches all
the way to the Bukit Batok Park (approximately 36 ha), one of its
source tributaries in Bukit Timah Hill. A very short stretch of
the river left as less human intervened stream. Low base flow, which
is supplied by subsurface flow, is seen in the natural streams
(Plate XIV). The Park is covered by trees which bear resemblance
of primary rainforest, inhabited by several flora and fauna species.
The cemented canals are hard for most of aquatic organisms to live,
whereas the natural stream provides good habitats for aquatic life
as fish (Clip 3).
