SUPPRESSING NOISE AND VIBRATION IN THE SUBWAY

With extensions totalling 8.5 miles due for completion by 1977, partly through environmentally-sensitive areas along the route of the abandoned Spadina Expressway, Toronto Transit Commission acknowledges the need for continuing research to fill gaps in existing knowledge about noise and vibration problems. TTC has examined these in detail, and in many cases successful solutions have been developed to meet standards set by the Institute for Rapid Transit.
