Noise Nuisance

Noise greatly affects our quality of life, and exposure to continual loud noise can affect our hearing as well as our general health. The Council can address specific noise nuisances coming from homes or businesses, or from car alarms or building works. It can do little about the most general sources of noise - traffic and aircraft, although steps taken to reduce traffic would help reduce noise too.
