Western Water Catchment, Singapore

Western Water Catchment (Malay: Kawasan Tadahan Air Barat; Simplified Chinese: 西部集水区, Traditional Chinese: 西部集水區, Pinyin: Xībù Jíshuǐqū; Tamil: மேற்கத்திய நீர் நீர்ப்பிடிப்பு) is a planning area in the West Region of Singapore. Covering 69.46 square meters, it is by far the largest planning area in the island nation. It is bordered by Lim Chu Kang and Sungei Kadut in the northeast, Choa Chu Kang, Tengah and Jurong West in the east, Pioneer in the south and Tuas in the southwest. It also faces the Straits of Johor, across from the Malaysian state of Johor in the northeast.

The Western Water Catchment is home to four reservoirs namely the Tengeh Reservoir, Poyan Reservoir, Murai Reservoir and Sarimbun Reservoir. The Singapore Armed Forces also uses this area for live-firing, so access is restricted to members of the public.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
