Strategies for Overcoming Environmental Noise in Recreational Area (Case Study in Tibubeneng Village, Kuta Utara District, Badung Regency)

Abstract

This researcha ims to analyze noise due to traffic volume what happened in the village of Tibubeneng. Quantitative data collection was obtained by calculating the noise level due to traffic volume which is measured for 1 (one) hour and calculating the noise level due to human activity Which dB(A) sound pressure level measurement for 10 minutes for each measurement and readings are taken every 5 seconds. The results are set forth in a traffic volume, noise and road geometry survey form.Traffic Noise Level Prediction Method (CoRTN). The research results show that Noise levels due to human activities at the study site on weekdays and holidays have exceeded the noise quality standards listed in KMLH no 48 of 1996 concerning Noise Level Standards, where the noise level in recreational areas is 70 dB (A). The strategy for noise sources from human activities is to regulate the operating hours of recreational areas, arrange the implementation of activities that cause higher noise levels such as launching fireworks, adding silencers and planting trees in recreation areas. While the strategy for noise sources from traffic activities is to carry out traffic engineering, regulate traffic speed and add noise reduction from natural materials such as planting trees.
