Somerville residents bothered by an increase in air traffic have the ability to take action by reporting airplane noise. Reporting to Massport is the first step, as they handle all official complaints. Complaints can be registered through the Massport website or by calling their complaint line at (617) 561-3333. Responses typically occur within three to four weeks.

The next step is to notify Somerville about the issue. This is done by calling 311, visiting the 311 website, or downloading the 311 app.
