| Kolkata Amar Sonar Kolkata. City of Joy! Trams, mini buses, rosogolla, mishti doi, buses named 12C/32A/29D. Land of Mother Teresa & Charity. Macher Jhol and ubiquitous smell of Hilsa. Horrific sweat, chappals, the 20 paisa (remember that?) Most Nobel laureattes of India. Salt Lake stadium, chaotic, poor, fleeting Communism afloat with hope. Livid theatre culture. But what about Roads and Traffic condition here - A Big Question Mark? |

Road Traffic Noise in Calcutta Metropolis
A comprehensive study on traffic noise level at twenty four pre-selected road transaction of Calcutta Metropolis was carried out during 1993-94. Noise levels were measured at each of twenty four sites, based on predetermined sampling interval and altogether 2880 observations were generated by recording data continuously for 24 hours.
The Lcq 24, exceedence levels, LD, LN, LDN, LNP and TNI were determined. Traffic flow density as measured along with noise data recording were then compared for establishing relationship with noise level. Finally the clustering of the sites were made based on variable viz. Lcq 24 and traffic follow density. |
