There are preliminary soil tests done on the reserve.
Such tests involved surveyors going off-trail to collect data using handheld equipment in sensitive vegetated areas. They also required boring holes up to 70m underground to extract soil samples from existing trails.

This may possibly crush seedlings and impacting fauna in sensitive core areas of the nature reserve."

Even before the actual excavation happens, the boreholes that have to be drilled to investigate the soil will already damage the environment. Of the 37 boreholes, 16 are within the nature reserve.

The LTA added that construction works – though outside an estimated boundary – increase the likelihood of these animals being disturbed or injured by traffic during construction.

The direct alignment will involve clearing two forest patches outside the nature reserve for ventilation structures.

One of these forest patches on the eastern end of the reserve is a stronghold for the critically endangered Raffles' banded langur, a species of monkey which has a population size of 61 in Singapore.

A population of langurs in Bukit Timah Nature Reserve went extinct after the Bukit Timah Expressway was built, separating the Bukit Timah and Central Catchment nature reserves.

Once we lose our primary forests, they are gone forever. While the Singapore government has been ramping up efforts to plant more green around the country, these new patches of vegetation will not support us and our wildlife the same way our primary forests can.
