2016, Journal of Transport GeographyCitation Excerpt :Exposure to noise from road traffic has been studied for decades because of its health impacts (e.g. Poenaru et al., 1978). Noise causes physiological reactions characteristic for stress that seriously affect health (e.g. Bryan and Tempest, 1973) and is linked to tinnitus, mood changes, chronic sleep disturbance and lack of recovery from tiredness, nervousness, anxiety and phobia, as well as cardiovascular diseases and cognitive impairment of children (Babisch, 2011, 2015; Öhrström, 1995; Poenaru et al., 1978; WHO, 2011). Noise exposure can also negatively affect speech communication, concentration ability and the performance of tasks.
