Assessment of vehicular noise impact along the alignment of Rani Durgawati Setu (Elevated Corridor) in Jabalpur city.

Abstract The current focus of urban environmental governance is on the traffic noise pollution caused by road transportation. Elevated roads, defined as transportation systems comprising elevated roads and underlying ground-level roads, exhibit unique traffic noise distribution characteristics due to the presence of double-decked roads. This study conducted noise measurements at 13 locations of elevated roads and at ground level road in Jabalpur, including assessing noise levels at the road boundaries and examining noise distribution at different distances. The results show change in noise level before and after the construction of Rani Durgawati Setu the newly inaugurated elevated road connecting two parts of the city spanning between Madan Mahal and Damohnaka over the total length of 7.25kms with 8 ramps for incoming and outgoing vehicles, the horizontal distance attenuation of noise in adjacent areas exhibits no significant difference from that of ground-level roads, but substantial discrepancies exist in vertical height distribution. The under-viaduct rotary space experiences more severe noise pollution than areas above the viaduct height, systematic noise mitigation strategies should be developed for elevated composite road systems. Additionally, the study reveals that nighttime noise fluctuations are significantly greater than those during the day, further exacerbating residents’ noise annoyance.
