Up to 20,000 new public & private homes to be built at Bukit Timah Turf City

In about 20 to 30 years, Bukit Timah Turf City will see 15,000 to 20,000 new public and private homes.

This marks the first time in nearly four decades that public housing is planned for Bukit Timah.

Moreover, to optimise the living environment, the estate will integrate “homes, heritage, nature, and amenities” as part of its development.

These proposals were announced in a media release by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) on Thursday (23 May).

URA identified 27 buildings and structures of heritage significance for potential retention

In particular, the estate’s transformation will take into account its heritage value.

Notably, Bukit Timah Turf City boasts an illustrious history of 66 years as the Lion City’s second racecourse.
