NOISE INSULATION REGULATIONS 1975 (AS AMENDED 1988)
Offers of insulation (double windows, and perhaps doors, special ventilation and in some cases venetian blinds) or an equivalent grant have been made to the occupiers (and/or landlords) of all residential properties which are believed to qualify under the Noise Regulations Act 1975 (as amended 1988). A list showing these dwellings may be downloaded: Noise Insulation Report (PDF 4MB) or seen during normal office hours from the 27 October 2011 at the offices of:
- the Highways Agency, Federated House, London Road, Dorking, Surrey, RH4 1SZ;
- East Hampshire District Council, Penns Place, Petersfield, Hampshire GU31 4EX;
- Hampshire County Council, The Castle, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 8UJ:

Where no offer of insulation or grant has been made 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 the dwelling or property is within 300 metres of the scheme. Any person who claims that use of the improved length of road causes, or is expected to cause, noise greater than the level specified in the Regulations may appeal in writing to the Highways Agency, Major Projects Division, 2A, Federated House, London Road, Dorking, Surrey, RH4 1SZ. 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 not later than 22 December 2011.
