About 10,000 new homes could be built on a large tract of land in Fernvale North in Sengkang, based on proposed plans for a new residential estate next to the Tampines Expressway (TPE).
The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) is preparing an 18.9ha site bounded by Jalan Kayu, Fernvale Street, the TPE and the upcoming Sengkang West Drive for housing.
Proposed amendments to the URA master plan released on April 29 show that the site, which property analysts say could house a mix of public and private projects, will have parks, a place of worship and a health and medical facility.
URA said the proposed development will support the demand for housing in the area, and provide current and future residents with "commercial and recreational amenities, as well as social and community facilities, greater accessibility to parks and improved road connectivity".
The site about the size of 35 football fields - is located near the Seletar Aerospace Park and an industrial area in Seletar West that will be developed.
Nearby amenities include two LRT stations, Thanggam and Kupang, as well as Sengkang Riverside Park.
