Pasir Ris Sports and Recreation Centre (SRC), Singapore Sports Council's (SSC) newest addition to its family of 21 SRCs, features a comprehensive range of sports facilities with a diverse retail mix to provide an all rounded experience for guests.

Pasir Ris Sports and Recreation Centre has well integrated sports and lifestyle facilities. Their residents can now enjoy a sporting and healthy lifestyle while relaxing and building bonds with family and friends. Their residents have long wanted such a centre in Pasir Ris, and are all delighted at these wonderful new facilities.

The SRC offers modern sports facilities which are refreshingly different from conventional types, such as a swimming complex with water play features and a Jacuzzi, a gymnasium with pool view, an air-conditioned sports hall with seating capacity for 2,000 spectators, and a 5-a-side soccer court. A wide variety of lifestyle amenities is also offered at this SRC ranging from sporting apparel shops and F&B outlets, to a child education centre and 24-hour convenience store.

Pasir Ris Swimming Complex has recorded an average monthly attendance of more than 20,000 visitors, while its ClubFITT Gymnasium attracted an average of 11,000 visitors per month.

Pasir Ris SRC is also thoughtfully designed to be user-friendly for all. Braille markings and tactile warning strips are provided where necessary to guide the visually-impaired. In addition, a ramp is provided for wheelchair users to gain access to the pools while slip-resistant tiles are used at the pool decks and for all wet areas. In addition, Pasir Ris SRC is the first of its kind as an 'eco-friendly' sports complex, adding on to Singapore's recently earned accolade as Asia's greenest metropolis based on the Asian Green City index. Surrounded by nature, Pasir Ris SRC adopts a 'sports in a park' concept and blends seamlessly with the neighbouring town park without dividing fences.

The SRC is designed with environmentally friendly and energy-saving features such as a rainwater-harvesting system to irrigate surrounding plants, vertical 'green' walls and landscaping to reduce ambient heat gained, and photo-voltaic cells for energy generation.

Pasir Ris SRC will be the first SRC in Singapore specially designed to give guests the feeling of being in a 'green' sporting sanctuary right in the middle of the town centre. Not only does the new SRC make for an enjoyable environment for residents, the design helps limit our carbon footprint. Adding to the 'green' mood at the Pasir Ris SRC official opening, nine trees were planted at the side entrance of the SRC by DPM Teo, Acting Minister Chan, MPs for Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC and Punggol East SMC.

SSC is also aiming for Pasir Ris SRC to attain the Building and Construction Authority's Green Mark platinum award, the highest accolade given to environmentally friendly buildings in Singapore.    

Pasir Ris Sports and Recreation Centre (SRC) spans over 1.4 hectares in size and comprises facilities including a swimming complex with two pools, a multi-purpose indoor sports hall with a viewing gallery for 2,000 spectators, a gymnasium with pool view, two tennis courts, a 5-a-side soccer court, and a dance studio. It is designed as a place for play and relaxation and is the first SRC in Singapore that is specially designed to give guests the feeling of being in a 'green' sporting sanctuary right in the middle of the town centre.

Sports enthusiasts, food lovers and families looking for recreational spots in the east will find it easier to get to their playgrounds. A new 3.8km green corridor linking up the popular East Coast Park with Bedok Town Centre, as well as Bedok Reservoir, will be built over the next five years.

This means one will be able to walk – taking about 20 minutes, or cycle directly from the MRT station or bus interchange in Bedok, to either of the two recreational spots. It is part of a larger ambitious makeover for the East Coast, and comes on top of previously announced plans for a revitalised Bedok town with a new food centre, an integrated sports complex, a mall and an air-conditioned bus interchange.

Also in the pipeline is a cycling network connecting schools, parks and MRT stations in an area stretching from Kaki Bukit to Tanah Merah. The makeover is part of the $1 billion second phase of the Remaking Our Heartland programme to rejuvenate mature estates over the next five years. The other two towns selected are Hougang and Jurong Lake.

Currently, there is no direct route for non-drivers to get from Bedok Reservoir to East Coast Park. They have to take buses or use the 6km Bedok Park Connector. Those coming from Bedok Town Centre have to traverse the expressway and roads via underpasses, or take a bus.

Now, the new cycling and pedestrian path, which runs parallel to Bedok North Avenue 1 and Bedok South Avenue 1, will cut travelling time. It will also be lined with gardens and sports facilities. Meanwhile, a new integrated sports facility will be built in Bedok North Street 1, replacing the existing Kampong Chai Chee Community Centre, Bedok Sports and Recreation Centre (SRC) and swimming complex. The current SRC will be used for housing developments and a new stadium.

Lastly, an 11km heritage foot trail will be built. Tracing the old Upper Changi Road, it contains information boards on the area’s history and links up famous food spots at Simpang Bedok and Siglap.
