SINGAPORE – Two neighbourhood police centres (NPCs) in Serangoon and Hougang will be merged on July 6 to optimise resources, the police said on May 11.
The merger between Serangoon and Hougang NPCs is part of efforts to transform front-line operations to better address evolving security challenges and community needs, the police added.
Serangoon NPC, which is undergoing renovation, will be retained as a larger operational base and will reopen on July 6 with a refurbished self-help area for the public to lodge reports.
Hougang NPC’s service counter, meanwhile, will be closed for renovations on July 6 and reopen as Hougang West Neighbourhood Police Post. The existing Hougang Neighbourhood Police Post (NPP) will be renamed Hougang East NPP, tentatively by the fourth quarter of 2027.
