title = "Calculation methodologies for motorways and national roads in Ireland: Comparing CRTN and CNOSSOS-EU",
abstract = "In 2009 the European Commission sanctioned the development of a harmonised calculation method for the assessment of environmental noise in the European region. CNOSSOS-EU represents a ratification of article 6.2 of Directive 2002/49/EC proposing a harmonised method for assessing environmental noise in European Union Member States. The paper investigates the most appropriate calculation methodology to be implemented for assessing road traffic noise on motorways and national roads in Ireland. This is achieved by comparing results from CNOSSOS-EU and the previously applied CRTN-TRL Method 1 methodology with sound level meter (SLM) measurements. Overall, the results show that relative to the CRTN-TRL model, the CNOSSOS-EU model converges more closely with measurement data for Irish roads.",
