Urban planning areas in Singapore

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Singapore is divided into 55 urban planning areas by the Urban Redevelopment Authority, organised into five regions. A Development Guide Plan is then drawn up for each planning area, providing for detailed planning guidelines for every individual plot of land throughout the country.

Since the implementation of these boundaries, other governmental ministries and departments have also increasingly adopted these boundaries for their administrative purposes. For example, the Statistics Department of Singapore published its 2000 Census data based on planning area boundaries for the first time, compared to using postal district boundaries for previous exercises.
