Jalan Kubor cemetery area has been zoned "Residential" since the 1998 Master Plan to meet our housing needs in the longer term. The detailed development plans as well as the implementation timeline for these plans have yet to be drawn up and will be subject to future detailed studies.

The National Heritage Board (NHB) had commissioned and completed a study in 2014 to document the cemetery's history and the personalities buried there. URA will work closely with NHB and expert panels to consider the heritage aspects of the site when reviewing future plans for the area.
