Road Traffic Noise
The Council cannot take action about general noise from vehicles
on the road. This includes moving and parked vehicles. However
it may be possible to deal with alarms,
horns, or music coming from vehicles on the road.
It is not usually possible to deal with one-off events or moving
vehicles with noisy stereos, although if a complaint is received
along with vehicle registration details, we may contact the owner
and provide general advice.
Where noise from a new or substantially altered road causes
increased levels of interference to residents, grants may be
available to provide sound insulation. For further information
please contact a member of Kent Highway
services

Excessive noise from the engine of an individual identifiable
vehicle may be controlled by the Motor Vehicles (Construction and
Use) regulations which are administered by the Police.
