Since the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increase in number of residents working from home. The Grassroots Adviser of Bukit Timah discussed with the Constituency Office (CO) and mooted the idea of community-based work booths for residents to use during the day in the event that there are disturbances such as renovation noise. Bukit Timah CO initiated a team comprising PA’s Residents’ Network Division, HDB and a community partner, Switch, to pilot the Switch @ Community Work booths at heartlands.
“Switch for Community” was launched in Dec 2021, offering 7 booths rented out to the public at special rates.


Switch at Bukit Timah Community Centre.
