Abstract
Provides guidance on the treatment of noise and vibration during the planning and design of national road schemes. The guidelines are recommended to achieve appropriate consistency with respect to the treatment of noise and vibration during the Constraints, Route Corridor Selection, Environmental Impact Assessment and construction phases of road scheme planning and development undertaken in accordance with Authority’s National Roads Project Management Guidelines (NRPMG). There are currently no Irish standards or limits governing the assessment of noise and/or vibration associated with either new or existing roads.
