Search for transport noise corridors

For building applications, you can use the mapping tool to find out if a property is in a designated transport noise corridor.

How the mapping tool works

The tool provides a mapped image and a report about the transport noise corridor that affects a property.

The tool's features include:

• easy navigation for property searches
• options for viewing search results, including standard cadastre or satellite image
• regular updates for property changes such as a subdivision or a divided property
• options for print sizes and saving search results.
