Stop the Train Wheel‑Squeal in Chiswick W4
An ear-splitting screech tears through our neighbourhood every time trains round the curve. Hundreds of residents are affected. Network Rail must act.
What's Happening?
The Problem
Trains negotiating tight curves near Chiswick W4 produce intense wheel-squeal noise — a high-pitched metallic screech that penetrates walls and windows, disrupts sleep, and harms wellbeing.
Who's Responsible
Network Rail owns and maintains the track infrastructure. Rail-dampers, rail-grinding, and lubrication systems are proven solutions used across Europe — but Network Rail has not installed them here.
What We Want
We're calling on Network Rail to assess the noise levels, install proven mitigation measures, and commit to a timeline for relief. Our petition will be formally submitted with your signatures.
