East Coast Parkway, Singapore

East Coast Parkway (ECP) is a motorway along the southeastern coast of Singapore. It was completed in 1981, to coincide with the opening of Changi Airport, and has a total length of approximately 20 km (12 mi), much of which built on reclaimed land.

Originally, it connects the Ayer Rajah Expressway to the airport, but with the completion of the Marina Coastal Expressway, which forms a new bypass for the Central Business District, the present western end of the East Coast Parkway is now the Benjamin Sheares Bridge, which now connects with Sheares Avenue towards the new downtown area.
