MARINA BARRAGE

A construction worker checking out the completed $226 million Marina Barrage, a dam built across the Marina Channel to create a freshwater reservoir. Singapore's first urban freshwater reservoir – at 10,000ha, or one-sixth of Singapore – will provide desalinated water to meet the country's growing demand. The barrage will also serve as a flood-control gate and a tourist attraction.The new reservoir – together with supplies from imported water, Newater and desalinated water – will help Singapore become self-sufficient in water by 2061, when its water agreements with Malaysia end. Singapore currently consumes 1.36 billion litres of water a day, equivalent to 500 Olympic-size swimming pools.
