Neighbourhood Noise

March 30th, 2012

Results of recent national surveys of typical exposure to noise show that over 50% of the population are exposed to day-time noise levels that exceed the World Health Organisation (WHO) ratings for significant community annoyance. Other surveys report that around 50% of people find their home in some way unsatisfactory because of noise intrusion. These results include people living in new homes built to modern building codes which require certain standards of noise control.
