North Coast Innovation Corridor
We intend to make the future North Coast an innovative economic corridor buzzing with ideas, creative design and new technologies. It will span from Woodlands Regional Centre, Sembawang, the future Seletar Regional Centre to the learning corridor and creative cluster at Punggol.
Over the longer term, the Seletar Regional Centre has the potential to grow to two times the size of the Tampines Regional Centre. Located next to it is the Seletar Aerospace Park which will provide a range of activities including training, and research and development.
The Seletar Regional Centre and Seletar Aerospace Park will be a major employment node for people living in the north and northeast.
Along the Sembawang coastline, new waterfront land will be freed up once we phase out the existing shipyard facilities. This will also provide land for new business activities.

A regional centre in the city-state of Singapore is a second-tier commercial zone after the main central business district in the Central Area. About 15 times the size of a normal town centre in Housing Development Board (HDB) towns, they are located in three suburban districts of Singapore, namely the Woodlands Regional Centre located at Woodlands in the North Region; the Tampines Regional Centre at Tampines in the East Region, and the Jurong East Regional Centre at Jurong East in the West Region. Original plans for these regional centres included a fourth regional centre serving the North-East Region in Seletar, but it has since been dropped.
