Data & Statistics

The Quieter Road Surface Programme

Selection Criteria for Roads to be Resurfaced
  • The road should be relatively level(otherwise engine noise will dominate)
  • The road should originally be paved with brushed concrete or other similar non-open textured surfaced(producing a high level of road/tyre noise)
  • The road must carry smooth high speed traffic(where road/tyre noise will be a problem) with a low percentage of heavy vehicles
  • The traffic noise from the road is a dominant noise source(reducing which will become tangible)
