Keeping the Noise Down: Highway Traffic Noise Barriers
Highway traffic noise barriers can reduce the loudness of traffic noise by as much as half; do not completely block all traffic noise; can be effective, regardless of the material used; must be tall and long with no openings; are most effective within 61 meters (200 feet) of a highway (usually the first row of homes); must be designed to be visually appealing; must be designed to preserve aesthetic values and scenic vistas; do not increase noise levels perceptibly on the opposite side of a highway; and substantially reduce noise levels for people living next to highways.
