Road noise The issue of road noise along West Coast Road, extending through Pandan Garden, Commonwealth Secondary, and Teban Garden small roads, remains unresolved. Despite the construction of highways opposite Pandan Reservoir, heavy container trucks continue to use the smaller roads in Teban Garden. This results in significant noise pollution, disturbing residents in Pandan and Teban Gardens, as well as students at Commonwealth Secondary School. The highways were likely intended to improve traffic flow and connectivity, but the persistent use of smaller roads by large vehicles undermines this goal. The noise from these trucks is a major concern for the community, affecting the quality of life and the learning environment for students. Addressing this issue might require stricter regulations on truck routes, better enforcement, and possibly additional infrastructure to divert heavy traffic away from residential areas.
