We have been coming to Cayman since 1996. Having returned post-COVID, we have noticed a marked increase in noise pollution on Seven Mile Beach. An exponential increase in ambulance and street noise, motorcycles zooming, etc.
Today, we had a helicopter hovering over our beach for over 10 minutes during Sunday afternoon! It really seems like people and government alike just don’t care about limiting noise and maintaining the serene Cayman we used to have.
For example, quality of life would be enhanced by a simple action: make West Bay Road north of the Kimpton for local traffic only and reduce the speed limit and enforce it! The bypass hasn’t sufficiently reduced traffic on West Bay Road and government should realise that this noise pollution is destroying what was a quiet paradise.
