West Coast Site Debris Fall On Parked Cars & Road, Raises Safety Concerns

West Coast Construction Site Sees Falling Debris, Narrowly Avoids Pedestrians

Construction work is resuming as authorities clear workers to return. However, there may be some non-health-related issues surrounding a return to work.

The area around a construction site in Pandan Loop, West Coast, saw falling debris with no cordons.

Facebook page All Singapore Stuff shared a video of the scene which allegedly unfolded on Friday (21 Aug), which you can view here.

Some of the debris that fell are as large as boulders, so you can imagine the concern if it falls on someone.

Concerns over lack of safety & cordoning

While this is happening, there appears to be no efforts to divert cars and pedestrians away from the site area.

We’ve contacted the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) as well as Pantech Business Hub for comment.

We can’t imagine what might happen if someone were driving or walking past the area and got hit by a large piece of debris.

Hopefully everyone is safe and that by now, the area has been cordoned off, investigations ongoing, and debris cleared from the road.
