Abstract:

In March 1998, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Office of Natural and ; Human Environment, released the FHWA Traffic Noise Model (TNM), Version 1.0, a ; state-of-the-art computer model for highway traffic noise prediction and analysis. ; Since then, the FHWA, with assistance from the Volpe Center Acoustics Facility ; (Volpe Center) and Foliage Software Systems (FSS), have released updates of TNM ; (Versions 1.0a and 1.0b) in March 1999 and August 1999, respectively. In support ; of the FHWA and the California Department of Transportation, the Volpe Center and ; FSS released Version 1.1 in September 2000. Two additional updates were released: ; TNM 2.0 in May 2002 and TNM 2.1 in March 2003. TNM 2.5 is the latest version of ; TNM. Two companion reports were released with TNM Version 1.0, a Technical Manual ; that describes the acoustics within TNM and a User's Guide.
