Debated in Parliament on 25 Sep 2025.
Mr Dennis Tan Lip Fong asked the Minister for National Development (a) what are the measures taken to stop active mobility users using Park Connector Networks from blasting loud music while passing near housing estates, such as those along Hougang Avenue 7 and Upper Serangoon View, especially during quiet hours at night; and (b) whether there are any plans to enhance current public education or enforcement measures regarding such behaviour.
Visitors to our public spaces, such as parks and park connector networks (PCN), should be considerate to the wider community, including residents, and not create noise that might disturb others.
Where necessary, National Parks Board (NParks) will step up its enforcement operations and public education efforts. NParks also installs signs along PCN to advise users to keep noise levels down.
NParks collaborates closely with partners, such as the People's Association, Residents' Networks, Friends of the PCN and the Singapore Kindness Movement, to raise public awareness about PCN etiquette.
