PROTECTION AGAINST ROAD TRAFFIC NOISE PROVIDED BY CONSTRUCTIONAL AND TRAFFIC ENGINEERING MEASURES

AN INVESTIGATION WAS CARRIED OUT TO FIND THE INSTRUMENTS AND METHODS WHICH PROVIDE AN ACCURATE MEASUREMENT OF ROAD NOISE SO THAT THE VARIOUS SOURCES OF NOISE CAN BE DETERMINED. EXTENSIVE MEASUREMENTS INDICATE RELATIONS BETWEEN CHARACTERISTIC VALUES OF NOISE AND TRAFFIC PARAMETERS. THE ESTABLISHMENT OF MAXIMUM NOISE LEVELS IS DISCUSSED TOGETHER WITH THE POSSIBLE WAYS AND COSTS OF PROVIDING NOISE PROTECTION. /TRRL/
