Noise from roadworks and in the street
We are unable to deal with complaints about noise from people in the street or traffic.
Road repairs are vital to ensure the smooth and safe flow of traffic. Sometimes, to minimise disruption it's necessary for roadworks to be done at night.
The people responsible for carrying out roadworks must try to minimise noise impact by using appropriate techniques and equipment.
Report noise from roadworks
If you are disturbed by unreasonable amounts of noise from roadworks, report it using our contact us form (by choosing 'All other enquiries' from the Enquiry type drop-down list).
