Some 1,700 Clementi homes to be redeveloped en bloc

Some 1,700 Clementi homes to be redeveloped en bloc 
CLOSE to 1,700 households in Clementi have been selected for relocation in one of the Housing Board’s largest redevelopment exercises.
Under the Selective En-bloc Redevelopment Scheme (Sers), households in the 30-year-old precinct at Clementi Avenue 1 will be relocated to a new site nearby.

The current site comprises eight blocks of flats, two rental blocks and some shops.

Apart from a Sers exercise in March last year which involved about 1,800 units, earlier exercises typically involved relocation of about 600 to 1,000 units.

The new estate is due for completion by the end of 2011.

It will feature a new park and is situated near the Clementi MRT station, bus interchange and town centre.
