Noise insulation notice
NATIONAL HIGHWAYS LIMITED
NOISE INSULATION REGULATIONS 1975
M42 J6 Improvement Scheme
The M42 J6 Improvement Scheme was opened to traffic on 24/03/26.
Assessments have determined that no residential properties are believed to qualify for offers of insulation (secondary glazing, supplementary ventilation and, where appropriate, venetian blinds and double or insulated doors) nor an equivalent grant under Regulation 3 of the Noise Insulation Regulations 1975.
The Regulations give a right of appeal to the occupier or person entitled to occupy any dwelling or other residential property (such as an old people’s home or hostel for long-stay residents), and to his/her immediate landlord or licensor (if any), where no offer of insulation or grant has been made and the dwelling or property is within 300 metres of the scheme. Any person who claims that the use of the new length of road causes or is expected to cause noise greater than the level specified in the Regulations may appeal in writing to National Highways, M42 J6 Project Team, Three Snowhill, Snowhill Queensway, Birmingham, B4 6GA. The appeal should set out the facts and request that an offer of insulation or grant be made in accordance with the provisions of the Regulations. This right of appeal must be exercised no later than 24/03/27.
