Government identifies new SERS site

30 Dec 2011

Blocks 167 to 172 at Boon Lay Drive comprise the newest site identified by the Singapore government for the Selective En Bloc Redevelopment Scheme (SERS).

Consisting of 650 flats, this is the 77th site to benefit from the SERS programme.

The HDB will develop some 710 new two- to five-room flats at Jurong West Central to re-house the home owners.

Located next to Boon Lay MRT station and Jurong Point, the new replacement flats feature a wide range of amenities, including shops, a bus interchange, supermarkets, schools and parks.

Residents can also enjoy various recreational facilities like a playground, a precinct pavilion, fitness stations and a community garden.

Launched in 1995, SERS has benefitted around 35,000 households across 76 sites. The programme offers residents the opportunity to relocate to new flats with a fresh 99-year lease, modern facilities and better design.
