Living with noise in a primarily residential area due to short-sighted CEB construction

Just a rejoinder to Manel Fonseka's letter in the Sunday Times of May 21 on the subject of noise pollution. I can fully empathise with what she has been through. I am a resident of Evergreen Park, Colombo 5 and subject to noise on a daily basis.

The CEB in their "infinite wisdom" have decided to construct their headquarters in what has been classified by the UDA as "primarily a Residential Area"!! In addition, there are neighbours who do not think twice about tooting their car horns at all hours of the night despite having remote controlled gates/garages!
