由来
  • 滨海堤坝由新加坡公用事业局(Public Utilities Board)管理,于2008年10月31日正式启用。
  • 滨海堤坝宽350米,建于滨海水道口,约有10,000公顷的集水区,是首个建立在新加坡市中心的蓄水池。
  • 滨海堤坝拥有七个各重约28吨的水泵和九个30米宽、由液压操控的钢制堤坝闸门。这些水泵能在下大雨涨水时将多余的水排放到海中,避免淹水的问题。
  • 滨海堤坝是结合防洪、供水及休闲娱乐的三合一设施。作为结合实用性与娱乐性的工程,它是新加坡的热门景点之一,也是许多大型活动的举办地点,当中就包括每年七月份举办的风筝日(Kite Day)。

ETYMOLOGY
  • Marina Barrage was officially opened on 31 October 2008 and is managed by the Public Utilities Board (PUB).
  • Marina Barrage is 350 metres wide and spans across the mouth of Marina Channel. It has a catchment area of about 10,000 hectares and is the first reservoir to be built in the downtown area.
  • Marina Barrage has a total of seven drainage pumps weighing 28 tonnes each and nine steel crest gates that are 30 metres wide and hydraulically operated. During heavy rain, the pumps help to prevent flooding by discharging excess stormwater into the sea.
  • Marina Barrage is a three-in-one facility: it prevents flooding, supplies water, and provides a venue for leisure and entertainment. Combining fun and function, Marina Barrage has become a popular attraction. It has hosted many large-scale events, such Kite Day, held annually in July.
