generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - G Smyth (15th Jan 2015 - 23:20:11) Anyone else bothered by the loud caravan generator which was running very late Thursday night? Caravan is parked in the main lay-by on London Rd before A3.

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - T. T. (18th Jan 2015 - 15:21:02) Live too far away to hear any noise. Is it legal to park on the pavement? What's the story here any way?

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - ellie (18th Jan 2015 - 18:47:55) A layby is not a pavement, it is part of the highway where cars can park unless there are restrictions, such as outside one's own house. Lorry drivers overnight in them

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - T.T. (18th Jan 2015 - 22:32:55) The caravan is on the pavement more or less blocking it chained to the nearby railings it is not on the road. Surely this cannot be right!!

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - G Smyth (18th Jan 2015 - 23:18:43) Caravan is parked blocking pavement and someone is sleeping in it. Got nothing against this but they are using a petrol generator which is rather noisy. For example, Generator was running all Saturday night and into Sunday morning and kept us awake.

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - H (19th Jan 2015 - 01:57:22) When I passed the caravan last Saturday afternoon, there was a handwritten notice in the window giving a mobile phone number and a message saying something along the lines of ....any enquiries phone this number. I assumed it was an advertisement to try and sell it. I am surprised to hear someone is living in it,, but if that's the case, my assumption is that it has been parked where it has, so the owner can empty the chemical loo in the river. I'd like to know if this is legally allowed. Can't see any reason why it has been parked right on the pavement rather than on the road, unless it is an attempt to keep it out of the way, but that doesn't make much sense as there would be enough room for vehicles to pass even if it was on the road.. There were no wheels on the caravan, presumably they've been removed by the owner so no one can just tow it away. I feel for the poster who has to suffer the noise of the generator at night, hopefully you have reported it to the council department that deal with nuisance noise..

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - dave (19th Jan 2015 - 06:41:21) if it was bothering me i'd go and turn it off.

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - jm (23rd Jan 2015 - 21:23:55) Has anyone got any updates / news on this ongoing problem?

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - Boris (24th Jan 2015 - 00:03:03) Went past caravan on early evening thursday and a car pulled up and man got out and proceeded to fill generator with fuel. No condensation on caravan windows. Generator running 24/7 but uncertain if caravan occupied.

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - Lips (24th Jan 2015 - 07:47:38) Any tax-payer would have been legally removed from there by now. "Travellers" allowed...

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - G (24th Jan 2015 - 16:55:18) Looks like this caravan is staying??? A new site maybe as the land has recently been sold? Generator running all today so far.

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - JH (24th Jan 2015 - 18:31:30) Well the generator has been going all day yet again. Again causing noise. During the week every night until very late. Is there really going to be a new site on the the recently sold land?

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - h (25th Jan 2015 - 17:01:10) I thought you said that it was parked ON the pavement? a pavement is owned by the Highways Dept, they would not sell pavements?

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - Keith (26th Jan 2015 - 12:24:14) Has anyone reported this to either Hampshire Highways or Environmental Health at EHDC. I'm sure that one or both of those would be able to take action to have the caravan removed (or at the very least have the generator silenced at night)

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - Oscar (27th Jan 2015 - 17:18:16) Unfortunately it looks like this caravan is staying another week. Authorities are aware.

Re: generator hum from caravan London Rd lay-by - Gs (30th Jan 2015 - 18:11:32) Anyone got any further updates on this?
