The typical soundwall installation is adjacent to an urban freeway and of considerable length. The combination of high traffic volumes, and long, rigid soundwalls presents a possible highway safety concern. The purpose of the report is to examine the accident experience involving soundwalls adjacent to State highways. There was a concern that an excessive number of accidents could develop. Another purpose of the study was to determine, within the flexibility allowed in design, the best location and soundwall type so as to reduce number and severity of accidents involving soundwalls.
