Colchester Borough Council has officially confirmed new noise mitigation measures for the Florence Park training ground. This result brings the needed relief to our neighborhood after months of formal pressure. We will monitor the site to ensure full compliance with these changes.

We the undersigned are concerned about the levels of noise from the use of the Florence Park training ground in Grange Road, Tiptree; find the levels of noise and frequency of noise from the site to be a nuisance and wholly unacceptable; are disappointed that Colchester Borough Council has failed to take effective action to mitigate against this noise nuisance; and call upon Colchester Borough Council to take immediate action to protect the amenity of local residents and reduce the noise levels from this site.

I have finalized the formal report detailing the specific noise incidents observed by residents near the Florence Park site. This document is currently being delivered to the Colchester Borough Council environmental health department to demand a review of the current facility usage.

Wasnt like this years ago. The frequency of the training sessions is just too much now. Sort it out.

Living here is becoming unbearable. Every evening is ruined by the noise from the pitch. We deserve some peace in our own homes.

Totally agree. They need to put some sound barriers up or limit the hours. It is constant disruption for my kids trying to sleep.
