Ten blocks of HDB flats in Teban Gardens Road will soon make way for en bloc redevelopment.

Affected will be 917 sold flats in Blocks 2 to 11, which are between 30 and 31 years. These comprise 672 three-room units, 120 4-room and 125 5-room flats.

This will bring the total number of sites identified for the Selective En bloc Redeveloment Scheme (SERS) since its implementation in Aug 1995 to 71.

HDB will build some 1,100 units of new 2,3,4 and 5-room replacement flats at Teban Gardens Road to rehouse the flat owners. The replacement flats are located at a convenient location, near the HDB commercial facilities at Block 61 Teban Place and the neighbourhood centre with a market/food centre at Block 37A.

This will ensure that the residents will continue to enjoy the current wide range of shopping, eating and market facilities available in the estate.

Eligible SERS flat owners will be invited to register for their replacement flats in mid-2008. HDB will also inform all SERS flat owners individually. For further information, they can call the SERS enquiry line at 1800-866 3070.
