HDB will offer replacement housing for affected flat owners at locations like Kang Ching Road, Tan Ching Road, Jurong West Streets 64 and 93.

Eligible SERS flat owners will be invited to register for their replacement flats between the end of this year and middle of next year.

Eight rental HDB shops at Boon Lay Drive and Boon Lay Avenue will also be cleared as part of the SERS development.

Eligible tenants will be granted an ex-gratia payment of $60,000 per tenancy and a 10 percent discount on successful bids for other HDB rental commercial properties. - CNA/ir
