Abstract

Transport and road traffic in particular are highly emitting noise pollution. These nuisances are considered one of the first threats to the quality of life and health. Indeed, noise pollution will continue to increase in magnitude and severity as a result of population growth, urbanization and growth associated with automobile use. In this paper, we propose an experimental study of vehicle noise based on measurement noise in three different sites. The main goal of this study is to determine the influence of different parameters, related to traffic and vehicle characteristics, in noise pollution emitted by vehicles. The experimental procedure was applied in three different sites used in order to integrate the influence of the infrastructure in noise comportment of vehicles. Results demonstrate that vehicle characteristics, traffic flow and infrastructure have an important influence in noise level of road traffic.
