This Noise Action Plan is aimed at managing Environmental Noise, as required by the EU Directive 2002/49/EC relating to The Assessment and Management of Environmental Noise (known as the ‘END’) which was transposed by the Environmental Noise Regulations 2018, SI number 549/2018. The aim of the directive is ‘to define a common approach intended to avoid, prevent or reduce on a prioritised basis the harmful effects, including annoyance, due to exposure to environmental noise’.
