Centrepoint Homes is aware of the noise hazard and potential stigma, and had apparetly employed acoustic engineer to study into the noise abatement measures, which include:
- fence and thick vegetation shielding the development to reduce sound travel from the road
- thicker double glazed windows for those units facing the pool and AYE
- angled facing of the blocks to reduce trapping and amplification of noise between the blocks
- minimum of 25m between the nearest point of any block to the road
etc.....
In any case, as I have taken the 2nd floor, I will be overlooking the nice eco pond and kid's pool, without a view of the AYE, and noise should also be kept to minimal, as it travel upwards.
got a sms from the agent that Collier's Interational predicts that psf in the the area will reach 800 by Q4 !!
