Cross Island Line Ecological Study Report submitted to LTA The study was done by seven environmentalists, some of whom are members of the Nature Society (Singapore), the Singapore Environment Council, and Cicada Tree Eco-Place. The result is a 120-page document describing the extent of biodiversity in the reserve located in the central part of Singapore. The document has recorded about 400 species of trees, 200 species of birds, 400 species of insects and 150 species of mammals and amphibians. The groups want to provide a realistic assessment of the impact of any physical works in the forests. They say the study will save the environmental consultants working on the EIA a lot of ground work. As soon as they come in they will have an appreciation immediately of whats there,” said Tony O’Dempsey of the Nature Society (Singapore). “They are off to a flying start with this document.”
