In the scope of the submission of the U1-underground railway line extension of the sections U1/5 to U1/8 as well as U1/13 to U1/15 according to the railway law, noise and vibration surveys were prepared in the areas affected under the assignment of Vienna’s public transport operator.
For this purpose extensive basic measurements were carried out for registering emissions resulting from railway and tram operation. The results were used as a basis for computer models and the expected immissions were predicted. In this process the acoustic properties of the stations were optimized.
