Here in Chua Chu Kang Town, we keep building better for you.
Let’s look at some of the improvements from the 2020 Master Plan that have refreshed our town.
Better Living with Better Homes
A new look was given to 280 blocks of flats through the Repair & Redecoration works, with residents getting to pick their estates’ new colours.
Blocks 402 to 417 at Bukit Batok West Avenues 4 and 7 got a facelift with a fresh coat of paint.
Better lifts for 106 blocks, with 204 lifts improved or replaced.
Life goes on smoothly through routine works such as water pipe replacements, re-roofing or electrical load upgrading carried for 120 blocks.
Blocks 340 to 346 at Choa Chu Kang Loop had re-roofing works done.
Improved amenities for 8,796 households with 5 ongoing or completed Neighbourhood Renewal Programmes (NRPs), featuring improved fitness corners and jogging tracks, new playgrounds, event halls, pavilions and more.
The well-loved The Arena@Keat Hong Hong was one major improvement added under the NRP.
