Q:

Annoying Noise

    Anyone else on Museum Street losing their mind over the demolition noise? Its blaring from 8am all day every week. It will feel like they’re knocking down the British Museum one brick at a time.

    For now, you can use the Hotline. They could screen the site better – Raise this at the next

    meeting – there are guidelines they must follow. Let’s see how they respond

    We can always contact Camden Council. There is demolition plan they must follow and the

    code document on the web site deals with practical things that we’ve agreed. Museum

    Street’s not just any road — if this is going to drag on for weeks, we deserve transparency

    and proper mitigation. A WhatsApp group could be good or maybe a ‘bulletin board’, Can

    MSCLG organise one?

    Exactly. Plus, the dust — I walked past the site this morning and it was everywhere. They

    says it is screened, and they dampen the spoil – but it’s not working. The pavement’s half-

    blocked too. Feels like now they’ve started we’re being completely disregarded.

    And they just plough on without pause. I know its 2-hour blocks But even basic courtesy like

    a leaflet or heads-up on a site board. Will the developer do that? Central London or not, this

    is a residential street. Some of us live and work here. Could our residents group organise a

    WhatsApp alert group

    Same here, just off Little Russell Street. I don’t want to be living next to a building site in full

    battle mode. I’ve tried noise-cancelling headphones — slight help but no match for whatever

    if they start heavy scale drilling!
