Heathrow Airport Third Runway- Noise Impact
 
24 Acoustics' Reuben Peckham has recently assisted Sky News by providing noise surveys and technical advice relating to the impact of noise from aircraft at Heathrow Airport.   The work was undertaken specifically within the context of the Runway 3 proposals.
 
Noise measurements were undertaken overnight inside the home of Peg Martin, a remarkable 90 year old lady who has lived within a couple of miles of the western end of the northern runway for over 60 years, from the days when Heathrow was nothing more than a grass airstrip with tents for terminal buildings. 
 
The full story can be seen on Sky News' website by clicking here and the resultant film is shown below.

 

Further information relating to noise from aircraft or any other source can be obtained by contacting us.
