Title: DEVELOPMENTS IN CONCRETE ROAD SURFACE TECHNOLOGY FOR THE REDUCTION OF ROAD TRAFFIC NOISE
Abstract: The Roads and Traffic Authority of New South Wales in its Northern Region is constructing trial concrete pavements with variations in surface texture to study the relationship between surface texture, tyre noise and skid resistance. The trials are being conducted on new dual carriageway concrete pavement sections of the F3 Freeway which connects Sydney and Newcastle. The aim of the research is to determine the optimum concrete surface texture that will provide both acceptable skid resistance and minimum tyre noise.
