The Study of Monitoring and Control in the Urban Traffic Noise

Abstract

In recent years, with the development of the automobile industry and urban traffic, the pollution of road traffic noise in Harbin has become more and more deleterious. After a detailed survey, it was found that the study about the situation of traffic noise pollution in Harbin was less and the result of evaluation was not accurate enough. In addition, the monitoring spots selected were so many that the workload was too heavy. Aim at this phenomenon, a new and comprehensive monitor on road traffic noise in Harbin and evaluation studies was done. The research was according to the state standards. The selected 35 road sections, the source of traffic noise and the state of traffic noise in Harbin and the state of traffic noise pollution were monitored detailed. The temporal and spatial distribution analysis on the source of traffic noise pollution in Harbin was carried out according to the monitoring datum. Through the monitoring safety analysis and overall character analysis on the state of road traffic noise, it was educed the phenomena of road traffic noise was serious pollution in Harbin. The mean value of equivalent continuous sound pressure level was 72.5dB, exceed state criterion about 2.5dB. Traffic noise of region was concluded that Daowai district>Daoli district>Xiangfang district>Nangang district by the traffic noise monitoring and safety analysis. Finally, the researchers found out the main factors which influence the state of road traffic conditions in Harbin based on the previous studies, and provided the countermeasures to reduce the noise.
