From end Jan 2011, guests can travel into Sentosa on foot via the Sentosa Boardwalk. It’s a leisurely stroll from VivoCity Shopping Mall’s waterfront promenade, made easy by two-way canopy-covered travellators. Guests are encouraged to leave their cars behind on mainland Singapore and take the MRT to HarbourFront station at VivoCity Shopping Mall, before making their way to the Sentosa Boardwalk.
The latest additional mode of access into Sentosa, the Sentosa Boardwalk is set to excite with a new dimension of the Sentosa Experience, while enhancing the seamless accessibility and connectivity between the island and the mainland.
The iconic gateway is also the first garden-themed boardwalk in Southeast Asia to feature tropical landscapes which are indigenous to Singapore. In addition to enjoying the lush greenery, witness a panoramic view of the bay as you travel on foot in the comfort of canopy-covered travellators before arriving at the Sentosa Visitor Centre.

Design proposal for a 620-metre long public pedestrian boardwalk complete with commercial infrastructure between mainland Singapore and the new integrated resort at Sentosa island. The design brief called for a network of covered travellators as a 'fast-track' mode of transport across the waterway, and this key feature is integrated into the overall development by introducing a continuous canopy with a flowing silhouette facilitating natural cross-ventilation. A service corridor tucked beneath the travellator platform effectively screens off the back-of-house from public view.
It will also feature five different themed gardens, from mangrove, rock garden, terrain and hill, coastal flora to rainforest. Work on this $70-million structure is expected to be completed by the end of January.
