Update on Results of Long-term Traffic Noise
Measurements for Pavement Overlay Projects
James A. Reyff
Illingworth & Rodkin, Inc.
2006 Summer Meeting TRB ACD40
Williamsburg, VA
Study Results Summarized
• I-80 Davis OGAC – 8 years
• State Route 138, Los Angeles County –
3+ years
• ADOT Pilot Studies – 2+ years
I-80 Pavement Project
Location: I-80 just east of Davis and west of Sacramento, CA
Traffic: 1998 - 120,000 ADT (almost 10% trucks)2004 - 135,000 ADT
• Existing - Aged AC surfacing• DGAC (60mm) applied in June 1998• OGAC (25 mm) applied in July 1998

LA 138 Pavement Research• Research Site est. 2002• Two Measurement Techniques
– Statistical Passby– Onboard Tire/Pavement Sound
Intensity
• 5 Pavements types– DGAC– Thick OGAC (75mm)– Thin OGAC (30mm)– RAC– BWC
LA 138 Results
• Initial results documented by Volpe and Caltrans (Illingworth & Rodkin)
• Initial levels up to 4 dBA lower than DGAC with Thick OGAC and RAC quietest
• Regular testing of Tire/pavement sound intensity – spring and fall
