Analysis of the Noise Impact in Urban Area in the City of Skopje

Résumé

The twenty-first century noise exposure is a major public health problem in the general living environment, requiring effective noise measurements and analysis for public health protection. Noise pollution in the urban environments is becoming increasingly common and it has potential to harmfully impact on people?s health and decrease the overall productivity. The parameters that disturb the quality of life, such as annoyance is a serious problem that needs to be solved. Skopje, as the capital of North Macedonia, is a city that faces problem with the environmental noise that causes different forms of health problems. In this work, a methodology for choosing pilot area and analyzing the noise pollution in that area through objective and subjective point of view is presented. The chosen pilot area of interest is a place called ?Debar Maalo? located in the city center, place with lots of inhabitants, visitors and surrounded with four main streets that are really frequent. Measurement for the noise levels were carried out using 1st class hand-held device, from which the results indicated increased noise pollution. In order to confirm these measurements, as well do analysis from subjective point of view, a questionnaire was conducted, showing that the population is disturbed by the increased noise levels. A general questionnaire was applied to a sample of 93 inhabitants, employees and visitors in this pilot area. The results show that the sound caused from vehicles and engines that drive at high speed are the most annoying sound from the urban noise sources. This study is a base for further research of the bad influence of the noise and its reduction and prevention in order to clarify this complex area.
