<strong>Warrawee</strong> <strong>Substation</strong> Page 33Operational Noise & Construction Noise & Vibration AssessmentReport No. 11332 Version BScenario BThe second traffic management plan would be for vehicles to enter and exit the site viaBrentwood Ave. Under a worst case scenario there would be a total <strong>of</strong> six truck movements (3entering and 3 exiting site) in an hour. Using the Calculation <strong>of</strong> Road Traffic Noise (CoRTN)traffic noise prediction technique, the contribution <strong>of</strong> these truck movements has beenestimated. Assumptions in this calculation include:vehicle speed 40km/h;distance to façade 9m; and difference <strong>of</strong> 3dB between CoRTN-calculated L A10,1hr noise levels and L Aeq,1hr .The calculated contribution for 3 truck movement per hour is 55dBA L Aeq,1hr.. This just meets therecommended criteria. Additionally, it should be noted that the increase in traffic flow istemporary.Furthermore, it is understood that heavy vehicles waiting to enter site would not be idling onBrentwood Avenue hence reducing impact from vehicular movements to the residents onBrentwood Avenue. .
