The report presents the findings of the study, documents the execution of the research program, and presents recommendations based on the study objectives which are as follows: (1) To evaluate and recommend threshold noise levels for various types of land use activities; (2) To evaluate and recommend equipment for the measurement of traffic noise; (3) To recommend a procedure for the evaluation of traffic noise potential associated with a new highway location with a specific design configuration; (4) To establish the degree of traffic noise near urban highways in Texas; and (5) To recommend traffic noise reduction techniques for use on existing traffic facilities.
