6. Noise Action Plans

The Draft Noise Action Plan contains information on the modelled environmental noise in each of the agglomeration. The Scottish Government recognises that environmental noise can be distressing and have an adverse effect on the populations’ health and quality of life. The Noise Action Planning process helps identify potential areas subjected to the greatest noise exposure.

This consultation seeks views on the Draft Agglomerations Noise Action Plan for Scotland.

The consultation exercise will be held over an eight week period commencing on 04 November 2025, ending on 31 December 2025.
