Acoustic Fencing – Front & Boundary Fences | SlimWall
i think there may also be a product you can clad onto existing colourbond fences - makes it look like a rendered wall. this may offer some acoustic properties, cant remember the name sorry |
Those acoustic walls are interesting. Could work.

In regards to colourbond we have it now and it allows sound to travel. Hard call but worth getting a quote for this brick wall compare the difference?
The cladding by another user sounds good to I should look into that myself

I don't want to waste money on a brick wall that could be potentially be taken down in the future.

I like the look of this fence actuslly. Thanks for the link,
If you decide on colourbond, you should consider planting a fast growing hedge in front or a vine/creeper over it to help reduce noise |

I want to rise the fence height so that will be beneficial
