Loyang is an industrial estate in the eastern part of Singapore, located close to Pasir Ris New Town, bounded by main road Loyang Avenue and rivers Sungei Loyang and Sungei Selarang.
Loyang encompasses of the three subzones - Loyang West, Loyang East and Flora Drive.
The region is served with the exterior road Loyang Avenue, which leads to Pasir Ris and Tampines new towns and Changi Village and much of the industrial estate is dealing with aviation related services, due to its proximity to Changi Airport. Before the redevelopment took place, a mosque, Kampong Loyang Besar Mosque used to be located in the area. Hence, the name was retained.
There is a famous Loyang Tua Pek Kong temple along Loyang Lane which attracts many devotees from all over the island.
Loyang Avenue[]
Loyang Avenue is a road in Singapore. It was opened on 22 April 1981, and connects Tampines Road and Upper Changi Road, and it is due to the Changi Airport that needed the building of Loyang Way, Loyang Valley, and to accelerate the development of Loyang Industrial Estate. There are also plans to have an underpass that was built in 2008 under the Loyang Modification Project for a semi-expressway, but this was scrapped as traffic conflicts along the Old Tampines Road, Flora Road, Pasir Ris Drive 1 and Tampines Expressway.
There is also "Shape Your Loyang" for the Loyang Youth Belt, where the action plan will also be launched. Youth will have their say on improving Loyang Avenue, which decentralises the Somerset area (The Heeren, Cineleisure Orchard and Skate Park).
