STOCKHOLM: Solutions for reducing adverse health effects caused by traffic noise are suggested in a report by researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, according to a statement of the university released on Tuesday.
"In recent years, the scientific basis for assessment has broadened considerably. But the legislation to protect residents of unhealthy noise levels is completely inadequate," Tor Kihlman, Professor Emeritus of Applied Acoustics at Chalmers, was quoted as saying in the statement.
