Noise Analysis
▲Noise analysis warrants sound walls ▲Meets Feasible and Reasonable criteria
under FHWA
▲Results indicate walls reduce noise levels of
at least 5 dBA
SLIDE 4
Noise Analysis Process
▲Noise levels are modeled
– Calibrated with noise measurements
▲2016 traffic count data used in the model
– Average Daily Traffic – 24,000
▲Actual speed limit of 40 MPH ▲Truck mix based on field data
SLIDE 5
Recommendations
▲Combination of 9-foot and 6-foot walls ▲Replace existing backyard walls

Potential Construction Considerations
▲Landscaping
– In-kind replacement of soil, rocks, ground cover
▲Protect Structures near existing walls
– Identify and work with land owners
▲Tie-in of fencing and walls
SLIDE 12
Potential Construction Considerations
▲Pets
– Temporary fencing and Communication
▲Security
– Temporary fencing
▲Access control concerns
– Driveways are not permitted off of an arterial roadway
SLIDE 13
Design Schedule and Process
▲Property owner meetings – Summer 2018 ▲Design completion – Fall 2018 ▲Public meeting – Winter 2018
– Potential opportunity for aesthetic input
▲Construction funding and update
– Potential for construction of additional 6-ft Eastside wall
