摘要：

This paper reports the results of a study to estimate the exposure of the Australian population to road traffic noise. A sample size of 264 dwellings, randomly selected throughout all Australian urban centres with a population of more than 100 000 people, was used in the study. Road traffic noise levels were predicted at each dwelling in the sample. The study estimated that over 9% of the Australian population are exposed to L(A10, 18h) values of 68 dB or above, and 19% to 63 dB or above. Confidence bands for these estimates are provided. The exposure estimate is compared to similar estimates in other OECD countries.
