Annotation: This article discusses the of the existing level analysis’ of noise pollution in the territory of the quarter located in the Kalininsky district of Donetsk and bounded by the main streets: Ilyicha Avenue, Maria Ulyanova Street, Shevchenko Boulevard and Shakhtostroiteley Avenue. The equivalent and maximum levels of penetrating noise in residential premises and on the territory of residential buildings are considered here. A classification of methods for combating noise in an urban environment is presented in our research. In-situ measurements and an acoustic calculation of the noise characteristics of a road traffic flow for the daytime were carried out, based on the average hourly traffic intensity for a two-hour period with the highest traffic intensity. The article presents the results of a field survey of the dynamics of traffic intensity of traffic flows for all types of vehicles on the highway in the morning rush hours along Ilyicha Avenue in the city of Donetsk. A noise map has been developed in the residential area of the Kalininsky district. The main directions of noise protection measures for the quarter under consideration were proposed.
Keywords: traffic flow, noise level, noise map, noise protection measures, main streets.
