- W595929852 abstract "Back in 1963, the Wilson Committee, set up at the request of the British Government to propose solutions to all noise problems, reported that in large towns Road traffic is the predominant source of annoyance and no other single noise is of comparable importance. All the noise measurements made in Europe confirm this: road traffic is almost invariably the main offender in built-up areas. It is true that aircraft noise may be worse than traffic noise, but unlike in the United States, only a relatively limited number of areas are affected. What is more, traffic noise is continuing to increase both in time and in space. The period of quiet at night is becoming shorter and shorter, as the measurements taken by the Greater London Council have shown. As regards space, the residential suburbs with their inadequate public transport services are suffering increasingly dense local traffic. This increase in road traffic noise in Europe reflects the growth of car and motor-cycle ownership and very fast urban development. Public opinion has reacted sharply to this nuisance. In all the surveys made in France, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and Great Britain, town-dwellers cite traffic noise as the principal nuisance. In London and Paris there have been demonstrations against new urban motorways, or freeways. In the face of this pressure from the public, noise abatement officials have been appointed, legislation has been enacted, noise abatement bodies have been set up, research has been initiated with the object of reducing noise at the source, and local measures have been taken to combat noise. Some countries and some city authorities are more active than others in the matter of traffic noise abatement, and some schemes have made more progress than others. Some of the various kinds of action being taken deal both with the problem of enforcing existing noise regulations and also with local measures taken to reduce the impact of traffic noise on the public." @default.
