Acoustics, Noise and Vibration

Unwanted noise and vibration is a form of pollution that can impact the physiological and psychological health of both humans and wildlife.

In response to this, legislation and guidance has become increasingly stringent and now places significant obligations on developers and site operators to minimise the noise and vibration impacts of their operations.

To help ensure compliance, our dedicated team of acoustics consultants provide robust, pragmatic advice on how to minimise intrusive noise and vibration.​

Through early and constructive engagement with stakeholders and consultees, we offer tailored solutions which can increase planning approval rates and reduce unnecessary expense.

We also provide independent advice, whilst staying client focused at all times. We help ensure development takes place on time and to budget, whilst minimising noise and vibration levels associated with the project. ​​
