RESIDENTS will be able to enjoy water views with 102 landscaped promenades due to open alongside rivers across Shanghai's 15 districts and Chongming County by the end of November.

More than half of the boardwalks are new while the rest have had a face-lift, today's Oriental Morning Post reported.

Shanghai's greenery authority has published a list of the riverside platforms on its Website and opened a hotline on 52904343 for public comments.

Pudong New Area has the most boardwalks, with 15, while the city's largest is on Chongming Island extending 26.1 kilometers, according to the authority.

The authority hopes to improve conditions for residents by beautifying the landscape near the water.
