What is Maximum Noise Levels In City Traffic about?
Manual and automatic noise measurements were made along 13 streets in Gothenburg, Sweden to explore sources of maximum noise levels. Noise from different types of vehicles driven in a realistic way in inner city traffic was measured. In summary, the result show that the most important vehicle component as regards the maximum noise level in inner city traffic was a medium-weight truck (delivery truck). Among the higher noise levels measured (q80 dB(A)), this type of vehicle is dominant. This is supported by tests that demonstrated that the noise level of a light truck, driven in a realistic way, exceeds that of cars and is on the same level as heavy trucks. Measures can be taken against the noisiest vehicle types specifically, and the noise load can be limited by introducing noise bans for particular streets in which vehicles that emit greater than a certain noise level would not be allowed use of the street.
