This strategic noise map presents a graphical representation of weighted predicted annual average (Lden) and annualaverage night time (Lnight) road traffic noise levels in Co Clare.The map has been developed in accordance with S.I. No. 140 /2006 (the Environmental Noise Regulations) and isa representation of the average environmental noise levels over one complete year. This map forms part of a nationalnoise mapping strategy which can be primarily used as a strategic tool for large scale planning or policy matters andis not suitable for local noise assessments.National and regional roads deemed to be carrying in excess of 3 million vehicle passages per year were assessed inthis national study.
