Background
Up to 16.5% of the UK population have sensory sensitivities. This includes autistic people and other neurodiversities. When accessing public places there is a large amount of noise pollution, especially regarding to cars and motorcycles on the road and this can cause a lot of upset and distress to those with higher sensitivity. Even neurotypical people find loud noises quite annoying and more restrictions being put in place will create a nicer place to live in.
