The Marina Barrage, Singapore
The Marina Barrage is a dam being built in Singapore across the Marina Channel between the reclaimed lands of Marina East and Marina South. The S$226 million project will be completed some time after 2007, and turn the Marina Bay and Kallang Basin into a new downtown freshwater reservoir. It provides water supply, flood control and a new lifestyle attraction. Construction of Marina Barrage is expected to be completed by 2007. This structure will provide flood control by changing the tide flow into the barrage. The building of the Marina Barrage required the relocation of Clifford Pier from Collyer Quay to Marina South (see Marina South Pier). The Barrage consists of nine crest gates which block out the tides. Each is 28 meters tall. Several large capacity low head propellor pumps are installed in the barrage capable of pumping out excess water from the man made reservoir.
