The first Build-to-Order (BTO) projects in these two housing areas will be launched in 2025, with the rest to follow progressively.
SINGAPORE: Two new housing areas in Sembawang and Woodlands will be developed to offer about 14,000 new homes, including 12,000 public housing flats.
The two new housing areas will add to the good geographical spread of public housing to meet the different needs of Singaporeans, said HDB.Sembawang North will be a 53ha site within Sembawang town. It will deliver about 10,000 housing units - 8,000 BTO flats and 2,000 private housing units when fully developed, said HDB.
"The homes in Sembawang North will be well-served by a comprehensive range of amenities, ensuring a quality living environment for both existing and future residents of Sembawang. A key feature of Sembawang North is the Community Wharves Link – a network of pedestrian connections which will link upcoming BTO projects, said HDB.
"The community avenue will also serve as a link between Sembawang’s existing developments in the south to potential future waterfront developments in the north. This is to provide more affordable options for young couples and families who wish to live in Woodlands town, it added.
