Woodlands, Singapore

Planning Area and Regional Centre in North Region, Singapore

About

Woodlands is the regional centre of the North Region of Singapore. As of 2019, the town had a population of 254,733. Located approximately 25 km (16 miles) north of the city-centre, it is the densest planning area for the northern parts of the country.

The Woodlands planning area borders Sembawang to the east, Mandai to the south and Sungei Kadut to the west. It has nine subzones; Greenwood Park, Midview, North Coast, Senoko West, Woodgrove, Woodlands East, Woodlands Regional Centre, Woodlands South and Woodlands West. Woodlands New Town is situated within the Woodlands planning area, which was developed during the 1980s as part of Singapore's plan to decentralise the city centre and create self-contained residential areas throughout the country.
