Commenters requested that trees be used for noise abatement.

  • July 31, 2019July 31, 2019
  • by Brandon Batt

Vegetation must be high enough, wide enough, and dense enough that it cannot be seen through to reduce noise, and typically vegetation provides more of a perception of noise reduction to the human ear. Therefore, it is not considered a noise abatement/reduction option by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).

Commenters requested information on how wooded areas will be maintained on GDOT right-of-way.
Commenters questioned if water quality will be impacted by the project?
