BAPMAN Mission 4: Project planning and further AQ screening. 18-23 February 2012, Dhaka, Bangladesh. NILU OR

Randall, S.; Sivertsen, B.

The Bangladesh Air Pollution Management (BAPMAN) project is an institutional-building project where NILU lends the necessary Air Quality Management (AQM) tools and associated training to the Clean Air and Sustainable Environment (CASE) program at the Department of Environment (DoE). Mission 4 of the BAPMAN project occurred in Dhaka from 18-23 February 2012 where the target of the mission was to hold project planning meetings for administration of the project and to establish future missions to Dhaka and trainings at NILU in Norway, especially for the beginning of Task 2 (CAMS training). In addition, field data was collected on PM levels, traffic density flow estimates, and SO2 concentrations from select brick kilns using a UV camera.

Assessment of traffic noise and mitigation options for Al Salam Street. NILU OR

Tibi, N.; Daham, B.; Shinbin, N.

Acting on request from the Abu Dhabi Municipality, Norwegian Institute for Air Research has been asked by the Abu Dhabi Municipality to evaluate the current noise levels on Salam Street and recommend mitigation measures to control the noise.

NILU provided traffic count data collected near the Sheikh Zayed Bridge and these were used in conjunction with an acoustic model to predict the existing noise conditions at 126 sensitive receptor locations.The predicted sound levels were compared to measured sound levels collected at seven (7) locations along Al Salam Street to validate the results of the modelling. This comparison showed strong correlation between the modelled and measured results.
Several mitigation options provided by NILU were incorporated into subsequent runs of the baseline model in order to predict the effectiveness of each option. It was found that the installation of a 5 m barrier adjacent to the outbound lanes of Al Salam Street would be the most effective individual mitigation option.
