On Saturday, May 18, the first-ever VIASTA community festival was launched at Simei MRT’s Viaduct after six months of dedicated research and stakeholder engagement led by the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) and SingHealth. Simei residents desired to see underutilised MRT viaducts transformed into inclusive spaces promoting sustainable and healthy living for their community.
We have studied and observed how the urban landscape has drastically evolved over the last 30 years. Despite being on a continuous journey of decarbonisation, it is worrisome to witness the constantly shifting climate and environmental risks that threaten both our greenery and human existence.
