2 new commercial belts to bring jobs closer to homes
The first new commercial belt is the North Coast Innovation Corridor, spanning
Woodlands Regional Centre, Sembawang, the future Seletar Regional Centre and
Punggol, to be ready in 10 to 15 years.
Seletar Regional Centre, for example, will be a major employment node for people
living in the north and north east. There?ll be more land for new business
activities when the existing shipyard facilities in Sembawang are phased out.
By 2030, it?ll be easier to get around using the Cross Island Line, Thomson Line
and the new North?South Expressway.
