Motorbike Training : Update

EFRA continues to support residents in Belsize Avenue, Jefferson Close and Mayo Court suffering from noise and disturbance from motorbike training in the Orion Park car park.

The operator has applied for the ban on the use of the open areas of Orion Park for motorbike training to be lifted so that training can take place using electric motorbikes.

In January 2015 EFRA submitted a letter objecting to the new planning application on the grounds of continuing distress and concern to local residents arising amongst other things from -

the proximity of the training area to residential accommodation – each outdoor training session
is conducted immediately and continuously alongside the boundary with the neighbouring
residential properties;

the low nature of the boundary wall between the training area and homes;

and the absence of any soundproof barrier between the training area and people's homes.
