註釋This Rumble Strip Noise Evaluation study presents results of sound level monitoring of three types of longitudinal rumble strips installed along the edge of two-lane rural roads in Polk County, Minnesota. The study is in response to objections raised by some landowners about the unwanted noise caused by vehicles traveling over rumble strips when they drift over the edge or centerline of the roadway. By changing and modifying the design, the ultimate goal is to provide the maximum safety by capturing the driver's attention through tactile and sound levels while minimizing the associated external noise generated by the rumble strips. Both exterior and vehicle interior sound levels were measured from three longitudinal edge of pavement rumble strip designs - California, Pennsylvania and Minnesota. Simultaneous digital audio files were also recorded. Three vehicles were used - a passenger car, pickup, and semi-trailer truck. Tests were performed at 30, 45 and 60 mph. Comparison of exterior and interior sound levels and audio shows that the Pennsylvania design is the quietest, both interior and exterior. The interior level of the Minnesota and California designs are similar but exterior levels are higher for the Minnesota design.
