Current criteria for road traffic noise have been based on studies of response (annoyance) measured under relatively steady-state tions. The paper examines various mechanisms which may operate conditions to alter the annoyance of a group of people and which validity of annoyance measures. A study of response to a reduction leve l indicates a much larger reduction in annoyance than would be anticipated from responses under steady-state conditions.Current criteria for road traffic noise have been based on studies of response (annoyance) measured under relatively steady-state tions.
