Environmental issues: noise, rail noise, and high-speed rail

F L Hall, J.D. Welland, C Bragdon, J W Houtman, Ben Immers

Abstract

The six papers in the report deal with the following areas: the effect of noise barriers on the market value of adjacent residential properties; control of airport- and aircraft-related noise in the United States; a traffic-assignment model to reduce noise annoyance in urban networks; a survey of railroad occupational noise sources; a prediction procedure for rail transportation ground-borne noise and vibration; and high-speed rail in California: the dream, the process, and the reality.
