Noise Round 3 Road (Lnight)
This dataset provides polygon noise contours for the Lnight (night-time) period, derived from Round 3 strategic noise mapping of roads in Ireland. It covers roads exceeding the flow threshold of 3 million vehicle passages per year, mapped for the Dublin and Cork agglomerations as well as major roads outside these agglomerations. It is published by the Environmental Protection Agency as part of national obligations to map and report environmental noise exposure from road traffic across Ireland.This is a polygon dataset of the strategic noise mapping of roads, which were identified as those roads exceeding the flow threshold of 3 million passages per year, in the form of noise contours for the Lnight (night) period for Dublin and Cork agglomerations and the major roads outside of the ag...
