2024 AEP80 Summer Meeting

RSG Senior Analyst Emma Butterfield coauthored a paper she will present during the Transportation Research Board’s (TRB) Summer Meeting of the Noise and Vibration Committee (“2024 AEP80 Summer Meeting”) from July 14-17, 2024.

The presentation, titled “Traffic Noise Modeling of Short Safety Barriers in Maryland,” provides an overview of modeling methods for calculating the noise reduction ability of short barriers in Maryland. While commonly constructed for safety, short barriers have been shown to reduce traffic noise in studies conducted by several state departments of transportation. This presentation extends the prior research to include additional sites measured throughout Maryland.

Who? Emma Butterfield, Senior Analyst (RSG)

What? “Traffic Noise Modeling of Short Safety Barriers in Maryland”

Where and When? TRB’s AEP80 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on Monday, July 15 from 10:40 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. ET.
