Transportation Noise Assessments

- At MRL Acoustics, we understand that the transport network is crucial to many industries although at the same time is a large contributor of noise. - Transportation noise includes not only road and rail, but also aircraft noise. A growing number of new development proposals are asking for permission to develop properties in ‘high noise’ areas. In these cases, local planning authorities may ask for a noise impact assessment in order to ensure their own noise criteria will be met along with standards such as ‘Planning Policy Guidance 24 - Planning and Noise'. - We can provide assessments for existing or proposed transportation noise sources for highways using Calculation of Road Traffic Noise (CRTN), and rail transport using Calculation of Rail Noise (CRN).
