Default Advice - overnight track works

Isaac Abraham wrote:
Last night LU took it upon themselves to work on the tracks just outisde
Harrow on the Hill tube station. They started sometime after 12am and
finished after 3am - our flat faces the track, rendering sleep
impossible etc.

Does LU have any complaints procedure for such cases? Has anyone got any
experience in dealing with them in such cases? Isn't drilling/ sawing/
hammering at such times breaking the law i.e. noise pollution at
unsociable hours?


You might want to check with your council's Environmental Health
department but I suspect if the work is necessary then they will have
been able to get permission to do this.

Each day a man watched a donkey walk past a high wood fence with one
plank removed. First he saw the nose, then the ears, then the neck,
forequarters, back and finally the tail. He pondered this for a time
and eventually declared. “I understand now. The nose causes the tail”
