What is the provinces policy regarding traffic noise?
The provinces noise guidelines state that noise attenuation will be considered if sound levels exceed 65decibels on a 24 hour average. During the design of AnthonyHenday Drive, the noise levels were calculated for approximately 30 years into the future and they were below the 65 decibels guideline. Approximately one year after the road opens to traffic, the province will undertake a follow-up noise study to confirm the existing and projected noise levels.
