„Protection from the road noise in suburban and urban city areas in the Republic of Macedonia“

Abstract

The noise has great influence on the environment and represents a serious problem, because it contributes for significant reduction of the life quality of the people. In the order of the influences on the environment the noise is on the very top, together with the pollution of the air and the water. It’s very important to point out that the noise has bad influence not only on the environment, but also on the driver and the passengers in the car. Special accent in the paper is put on the noise caused from the motor traffic – so called „traffic noise“, which is dependent from the surface characteristics of the pavement surfaces.
