NADIA (Noise Abatement Demonstrative and Innovative Actions and information to the public, LIFE 2009 ENV/IT/000102) is a project funded by the European Commission Directorate General "Environment" as part of the announcement Life + 2009 dealing mainly with the topic of road traffic noise. Detailed information on the project can be found on the project website [1] and in [2, 3]. The areas analysed in the project are 5 roads managed by the Provinces of Genova, 3 managed by the Province of Savona and parts of the agglomerations of Prato and Vicenza. Due to their traffic volume (for roads: higher than 3 million vehicles/year) or number of inhabitants (for agglomerations: higher than 100.000), the European Directive 2002/49/EC [4], implemented in Italy by the Legislative Decree n°194/2005 [5], imposes the realization of Strategic Noise Maps and Noise Action Plans for each of the considered areas. During Action n°2 of the project, data were collected for the realization of noise maps and the evaluation of the indicator “population exposed to noise” of the considered roads/agglomerations. Noise mapping activities were performed in Action n°3. The results of these activities are reported respectively in the Deliverable 1 and 3 of the project, available on the NADIA project website [1]. The results of the noise simulations are now being used for the realization of Noise Action Plans (Action n°4). The paper reports the methodology that is being developed for their realization in the framework of the NADIA project

Abstract

NADIA (Noise Abatement Demonstrative and Innovative Actions and information to the public, LIFE 2009 ENV/IT/000102) is a project funded by the European Commission Directorate General "Environment" as part of the announcement Life + 2009 dealing mainly with the topic of road traffic noise. Detailed information on the project can be found on the project website [1] and in [2, 3]. The areas analysed in the project are 5 roads managed by the Provinces of Genova, 3 managed by the Province of Savona and parts of the agglomerations of Prato and Vicenza. Due to their traffic volume (for roads: higher than 3 million vehicles/year) or number of inhabitants (for agglomerations: higher than 100.000), the European Directive 2002/49/EC [4], implemented in Italy by the Legislative Decree n°194/2005 [5], imposes the realization of Strategic Noise Maps and Noise Action Plans for each of the considered areas. During Action n°2 of the project, data were collected for the realization of noise maps and the evaluation of the indicator “population exposed to noise” of the considered roads/agglomerations. Noise mapping activities were performed in Action n°3. The results of these activities are reported respectively in the Deliverable 1 and 3 of the project, available on the NADIA project website [1]. The results of the noise simulations are now being used for the realization of Noise Action Plans (Action n°4). The paper reports the methodology that is being developed for their realization in the framework of the NADIA project
