Abstract

This research was conducted to analyze the level of traffic noise in Lumintang City Park, Denpasar. The measurement method is by using a direct method that is using an integrating sound level meter that has an LTMS measurement facility, namely Leq with a measuring time every 5 seconds. The examination is carried out by measuring for 10 minutes. The measurement time is carried out during the 24 hour activity (NGO) on December 3, 2018. The measurement distance ranges from 5-10 meters from the road, with a height of 1-1.2 m from the ground level. The results of the research on the level of traffic noise in Lumintang City Park Denpasar showed the noise level that exceeded the noise level quality standards of the green open space area of 50 dB, where in the first lane the traffic noise level was 92.52 dB at L3. While the noise research in lane 2 shows that the highest traffic noise level of 85.70 dB occurs at L5. For day and night (NGO) noise levels in lane 1 amounting to 70.13 dB and lane 2 of 67.95 dB has exceeded the quality standard of green open space, so that it can cause physical and psychological disturbances for visitors to the Taman Lumintang City of Denpasar..
