Two old power stations in Pasir Panjang will also be repurposed as recreational and nightlife hubs. # After the relocation of Tanjong Pagar, Keppel and Brani terminals to Tuas by 2027, Pulau Brani will be developed in line with Sentosa. New attractions similar to Universal Studios Sentosa are planned here. Plans are underway to rejuvenate Sentosa's beaches and enhance its nature and heritage trails. # Once Pasir Panjang Port relocates in 2040, mixed-use developments will be built at this location.
