“…The measurements in Table 2 confirmed that Q-sound was detected in 78 % of the total number of measurements at sites with directional lines in a curve with r up to 50 m, in 17 % at sites with radius r over 50 m, and Q-sound was rarely present 3 % at straight sections [17]. The presence of Q-sound in the measurements has a demonstrable effect on the resulting noise level.…”

“…The presence of Q-sound in the measurements has a demonstrable effect on the resulting noise level. Measurements at sites with r up to 50 m showed a 9 dB difference between mean L Aeq values with and without Q-sound [17]. After the analysis it can be concluded that the occurrence of Q-sound can be assumed to be a negative phenomenon.…”

The paper deals with the process of environmental risk assessment from exposure to noise from tram traffic. As part of the monitoring of the acoustic situation, measurements of sound pressure levels A were made and evaluated. The survey confirmed the existence of an acoustic risk in the form of a disturbing wailing sound when a tram vehicle passes through a directional curve with a radius of less than 50m. In addition to causing annoyance, the tonal variation of sound above 65 dB causes frostiness, cardiovascular, psychological and auditory problems, thereby damaging the health of people living and moving around the transport routes.

“…This study established that tram cars generate on 10 dBA more noise than private cars and buses. At the same time, researchers in the article [9] determined the change in the level of acoustic pollution of tram lines depending on the speed of carriages (Fig. 1).…”

“…1. Change in the noise level of tram cars, considering movement [9] Considering the regulatory documentation, we can conclude that the noise level is calculated according to generally accepted methods, which differ little in one country or another [11][12]. In general, the noise characteristics of the sources, which are traffic flows (or individual vehicles), are calculated by the provisions of DSTU N.В.1.1-33:2013 [13].…”

The problem of noise pollution in cities becomes quite acute as soon as it comes to increasing the level of motorization. However, most researchers study the negative impact of traffic noise in general. In the era of sustainable mobility, there will be a trend to reduce the number of private vehicles on city streets. Still, the problem of acoustic load in residential areas will not be solved since public transport is a rather powerful source of traffic noise. The article solves the problem of determining the patterns of changes in the acoustic load from public transport vehicles at different speed modes and road surface. The article's objects of research are straight sections of public transport lines. The subject of the study is the patterns of changes in the noise level from public transport vehicles at different speeds, their position, and the type of surface. The obtained results indicate that the main range of noise pollution from public transport on straight sections is 75-85 dBA, and this level can vary by 15-20% depending on the type of line (trolley bus, bus, tram) and the type of road surface. The regularities of changes in the level of noise pollution, which were revealed in work, indicate that for each type of surface and type of public transport line, there are such values of traffic speeds, when they are reached, there is an overtime acoustic load on residential areas at specific distances from them. The obtained results differ from the currently existing scientific studies in that they consider the acoustic characteristics of clear public transport lines and not the traffic flow as a whole. Therefore, it becomes possible to determine the maximum and not the equivalent level of noise from public transport. The field of application of the results is transport planning of both new residential areas and areas of existing adjacent buildings. Thus, in the first case, recommendations were made regarding territorial gaps from the construction line to arterial streets with high volume of public transport, depending on its type and surface. On the other hand, recommendations have been established regarding the speed regime of public transport at different distances from existing buildings' lines.

“…Mandula et al [11], and more recently Panulinova [12], developed empirical models for tramway noise based on measurements in Slovakia in which some differences were noted between different track forms. Olafsen and Stensland [13] presented results of noise monitoring in Oslo from which an empirical model for tram noise has been developed.…”
