Extract from
Draft Noise Action Plan template for Agglomerations
Section 3.12
From time to time a highway authority will undertake a specific noise
abatement initiative. Arguably the most notable example is the work being
carried out by the Highways Agency, where it is addressing sites on the
motorway and trunk road network that have been identified as having the
most pressing noise problems. Around 60 sites across the network have
benefited from additional noise mitigation either through the application of
low noise road surfaces or by the use of noise barriers since around
1999/2000. Additional sites are already under consideration for noise
abatement works during the next few years.
