A total of 590 blocks in 58 sites have been selected for the next batch of HDB upgrading programmes.
The exact list has not been disclosed but HDB said these blocks would benefit from programmes such as the Home Improvement Programme (HIP), Neighbourhood Renewal Programme (NRP) and the Lift Upgrading Programme (LUP). HDB said the number of HIP projects has been increased from two to four due to strong public support. Eight NRP and 52 LUP projects will also be offered.
Some areas will benefit from more than one programme.
HDB has also agreed to requests from some MPs for six of the Main Upgrading Programme (MUP) sites selected in previous years to switch to the new programmes as they have not undergone polling.
Residents from about 30 blocks in these sites will be able to enjoy one or a combination of the new programmes.
Details of the selected sites will be announced soon. - CNA/so
