Workshop Vicenza - Marzo 2013

Please be informed that on the 14th March 2013 in Vicenza the workshop about noise mapping took place. Slides of presentations made by the Province of Bolzano, Municipality of Vicenza and CIRIAF are available for downloading in the download section of the web site.

DELIVERABLE 4

Please be informed that the “Deliverable 4” is available for downloading in the download section of the web site, titled “Noise reducton Action Plans”.

The document contains the action plans according to UNI/TR 11327:2009 italian rules with identification of crtical areas and possible noise reduction measures.

NADIA public meetings

Next step of NADIA project is the development of the action plans for noise reduction. They will contain critical areas as individuated with the acoustic maps, priority intervention sites and the schedule of the foreseen activities.

The arrangement of the action plans is carried out through public sharing: three public meetings will take place in two different tonws, for the presentation and discussion:

-       during the first meeting there will be a general presentation of the action plans and the results of the acoustic maps with particular attention to the critical areas individuated

-       in the second meeting possible interventions of noise reduction will be presented and discussed

-       final meeting

For the Province of Genoa, the first public meetings are scheduled as following:

-       on Wednesday 30th January 2013 at 3 p.m. in the Sala Consiliare of Municipality of S. Colombano Certenoli, for the local roads n. 33, 225, 333 and 523;

-       on Thursday 31st January 2013 at 3 p.m. in the Sala Consiliare of Municipality of Ronco Scrivia, for the local road n. 35.

 

Mayors are kindly invited to attend the meetings as well as inhabitants and stake holders in general.

Acoustic seminar for Municipalities and Environmental Protection Agency employees.

On the 14th June 2012 was held at the Auditorium of MUVITA Foundation in Arenzano (Genoa) the acoustic seminar addressed to technical and administrative staff in force to the Municipalities of the Provinces of Genoa and Savona and of ARPAL (Ligurian Regional Agency for Environmental Protection).

The main topic of the seminar was about legal application of noise laws.

About 30 people took part at the seminar, 22 belonging to Municipalities and 8 to ARPAL.

Provinces of Genoa and Savona completed noise mapping of provincial roads.

The two Provinces, as manager of the local roads in their territory, have completed
the editing of the noise mapping for the main roads (that is with traffic flow over 3.000.000 vehicles/year).

The processing was performed according to the Legislative Decree no. 194/2005 (END enforcementin Italy) and it is the preliminary step for the action plans.

Some of the noise mapping have been developed within NADIA project, with CIRIAF
contribution, as partner of the project.

Province of Genoa noise mapping is available for downloading on the web site www.provincia.genova.it , section “Ambiente e Territorio” – “Rumore”.

Province of Savona noise
mapping is available for downloading on the web site www.provincia.savona.it/aree-tematiche/tutela-ambiente/rumore/mappatura-acustica-strade-provinciali.

Survey report

Please be informed that the first Survey Report of NADIA project is available for downloading in the download section of the web site (with annexes 1-5).

The document contains collections of data related to noise level of infrastructures in the project areas, population distribution, meteorological condition, characteristics of the ground.

Further subjects of the report are: data collection on
noise annoyance, analysis of propagation models, different kinds of innovative
barriers for primary school and kindergarten outdoors areas.

City of Prato: the new partner in NADIA project

On March 7th, 2012 the City of Prato has formally joint NADIA
project.

Prato showed its interest in joining NADIA activities since last summer and

Symposium in Florence, but only recently the European Commission formalized its
admission.

Prato activities in NADIA project will be arrangement of noise mapping and
draw up of acoustic plans for a large urbanized area of its territory.

Noise Management in urban areas: 24 January 2012 an appointment in Florence

The next 24 January 2012 in Florence will be held the International Conference " Noise
Management in Urban Areas", organized by the City of Florence.

The initiative is an opportunity to take stock of the main aspects related to the theme of urban noise: the legal situation, mapping techniques, intervention strategies.

During the conference three Life projects will be presented: Hush, Quadmap and Nadia.

The conference, as in the previous editions, has had the goal to promote contact and discussion between different stakeholders in the acoustic field. It was attended by about one hundred people, providing the occasion to take stock of the activities of NADIA Life project. In particular, were presented the preliminary results of the noise mapping of some provincial roads in the provinces of Genoa and Savona and a pilot study involving two schools in the town of Vicenza.

 

Among other issues discussed at the conference, thanks to the participation of technicians and experts from Liguria and other regions, there were noise monitoring on roads, highways, ports and industries; techniques for noise mapping, experiences on noise abatement in industrial plants and insights into the legislation.

At the conference were also presented some results of the Project Life HUSH on the harmonization of strategies for reducing noise in urban areas.


Presentations about NADIA project can be downloaded from the download area.

Milestone 1

Please be informed that the “Milestone 1” is now available for downloading in the NADIA project web site.
