Dear Sembawang Resident,

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU …

We have worked towards achieving a seamless town and are well underway to achieving this vision.

TELL US what you would like to see in your estate as we embark on our next wave of improvements over the next few years. Your suggestion/feedback is important to us. Email us at feedback@sbtc.org.sg

Town Improvement Works
Complementing the HDB's upgrading programmes, the Town Council has a steady stream of town improvement works. To create a seamless town, more all-weather linkways would be constructed to allow residents the ease of traveling from block to block. In addition, many of the Children’s playgrounds would be upgraded to introduce the new generation of equipment. More multi purpose spaces, suitable for both games and community events allow residents to engage in play and recreation. They will feature facilities like pebble footpaths and fitness stations. More Resident’s Corner will also be constructed to facilitate social bonding amongst the residents.

Lift Upgrading Programme (LUP)
The Lift Upgrading Programme is designed to improve your flat's accessibility and your personal convenience with the lifts stopping at every floor. This also benefits the elderly, families with very young children, and the disabled.

Home Improvement Programme (HIP)
The HIP helps residents deal with common maintenance problems in ageing flats, such as spalling concrete and ceiling leaks, in a systematic and comprehensive manner. It also offers lessees a choice on the works they want to be included in the upgrading of their flats. Flats built up to 1986 which have not undergone the Main Upgrading Programme are eligible for HIP.

Neighbourhood Renewal Programme (NRP)
With NRP, residents will be invited to participate actively by giving feedback and deciding collectively on the facilities for their precinct at a public forum.

NRP, which replaces IUP Plus, focuses on block and neighbourhood improvements. It is fully funded by the Government. Flats built up to 1989 which have not undergone the Main Upgrading Programme, Interim Upgrading Programme or IUP Plus are eligible for NRP.

Estate Upgrading Programme


Estate Upgrading Programme upgrades the public areas within the private residential estates. Private residents can look forward to new recreational facilities, improved road facilities, lush greenery and more communal spaces.


Hawker Upgrading Programme

The Hawker Centre Upgrading Programme will help stallholders compete with modern retail outlets. Some of the improvements encompass new and higher roofs, better ventilation, as well as sanitary, electrical and fire-prevention systems.

Interim Upgrading projects (IUP)
With the IUP, residents can look forward to enjoy a whole new range of facilities in the estate. Pavilions for old folks to mingle, new playgrounds for children to play, drop off porches and covered walkways to shelter you from rain and shine, multi-purpose courts for community events and many other amenities.

Main Upgrading Programme (MUP)
The Main Upgrading Programme brings many new facilities to your precinct. From covered linkways and landscaped gardens, to community plaza, and barbeque corners. In addition, more, and better and faster lifts have been introduced. These are especially beneficial to elderly residents. Residents will also enjoy various improvements inside your homes with dining room extension or the introduction of the utility room.
