Delimiting and Protecting Quiet Areas in an Urban Environment

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper is concerned with the problem of quiet areas in Timisoara City. According to the strategic noise map of Timisoara City, which has been updated in 2013, there were identified some potential quiet areas, which are needed in order to comply with the European Noise Directive. We present the conditions for these potential quiet areas to become real quiet areas, delimitation and measures designed for the proposed aim, and also measures which should be implemented in the next five years to protect and preserve them. The analysis is performed with the help of predictions based on some noise maps.
