Sector: Road • Location: Wakefield, United Kingdom
Source: Highways Today
An innovative noise barrier is being used along a section of the M1 at Wakefield by Highways England to reduce the level of noise for residents living close to the highway. The barrier also acts as a safety barrier, with the ability to withstand the impact of a 13-tonne bus traveling at 70km per hour. It shows a noise reduction of 37 decibels, similar to the noise level of a refrigerator humming.
