   Fact and Figures

   What is the Singapore Flyer?

   Diameter of the wheel:
   150 metres

   Height:
   165 metres (the height of a 42-storey building)

   Duration of ride:
   37 minutes

   Capsules:

   Easy Access for the Elderly and Wheelchair Bound
   A synchronised double door entry/exit system which enables access from both sides. Passengers will experience an easy “step on” access, making it convenient for the elderly and wheelchair bound.

   Revolutionary Wheel Rim
   The slim ladder truss rim represents an engineering design breakthrough, moving away from the conventional triangular truss ‘ferris wheel’ configuration.

   Precision Wind Engineering
   The wheel design, based upon an extensive study of the dynamic wind load data ensures that passengers will be able to enjoy Singapore’s spectacular skyline without experiencing lateral movement or vibration. The emphasis is on comfort and safety.
