Abstract
The aim of research was to identify health damage probability when traffic noise exposed. Instrumental noise measurements were carried out at 4 control points on the street highways of Voronezh city. The equivalent level of day, evening and night noise was determined. MR 2.1.10.0059-12 “Public health risk assessment from the traffic noise impact” was used as a methodological basis. It was found that the equivalent level of daytime noise varied from 45 to 65 dB, evening – from 40 to 49 dB, night – from 34 to 46 dB. According to the level of diseases reduced risk the cardiovascular system from noise load exposure for time exposure of 70-85 years the risk indicators (0.6861-1.0) refer to the level of “extreme risk”, 60-67 years (0.3551-0, 5594) – to the “high risk” level. The diseases reduced risk of the nervous system and hearing organs from traffic noise exposure is classified as “low”.
