The ESG is concerned to have received repeated reports over the festive period of excessive noise pollution coming from the dockyard area.

This chronic noise pollution continues on today. The group understands that this could be coming from the Skid Generators on site either helping supply shore power to vessels or meeting Gibraltar energy demands. These generators are currently blocked in by a large vessel at quayside causing amplification of noise produced and has led to the current problem.

The group urges all concerned, GibDock, GibElec and the Environmental Agency to urgently review the situation and arrive at a lasting solution that will deliver reprieve for residents who are currently facing sleepless nights.
