VEHICLE NOISE EMISSION IN THE TIME PERIOD UP TO YEAR 2010 - EXPECTATIONS OF A NORDIC GROUP OF EXPERTS

The purpose of this report is to achieve a consensus between Nordic experts regarding estimated vehicle noise emission in future road traffic (up to approximately year 2010) considering noise regulations already in force as well as anticipated regulations and developments. Various scenarios are discussed, such as expected noise reduction with vehicle type, speed and year as parameters. Judgements are made regarding quieter tyres, more quieter power units and quieter vehicles. The results of this study will give the planners a good basis for environmental planning as regards vehicle noise emission over the next 20 years.
