- Abstract
Today, rapid urbanization and accompanying population growth cause an increase in noise levels in residential areas. Noise source-based evaluations have revealed that the main environmental noise source originating from transportation in urban life is road traffic noise. The most efficient and economical way to reduce the adverse effects of road traffic noise is to control the noise at its source. If this implementation is insufficient, acoustic barriers are recommended to be applied between the source and the receiver. Noise barrier systems with different design components are used worldwide for road traffic noise reduction. Appropriate sections (lengths) should be determined before developing the barrier systems to ensure noise control on roads. The areas where acceptable noise levels are exceeded, and the road sections in these areas can be determined by strategic noise mapping. However, a range of criteria should be evaluated before applying barriers in noise-exposure areas. Within the scope of this study, potential road sections where noise barrier systems can be applied were determined for 20 provinces in Turkey for which strategic noise maps were prepared. While determining these sections, exposure exceedance assessments and noise modeling input data were used in the road impact areas determined within the scope of strategic noise mapping studies. It has been determined that noise barriers can be applied to approximately 3.9% of the modeled 620 km major roads.
