Innsbruck finds new approaches for effective noise protection in the West

In the west of Innsbruck, solutions for noise reduction are being used. In collaboration with ASFINAG (motorway and expressway financing attorney) and the responsible authorities from the state of Tyrol and the city of Innsbruck, several concepts were examined. A central aspect of this considerations is the installation of a constant noise protection structure along the heavily used A12. This was initiated by a feasibility study that serves as the basis for further planning.

The feasibility study has shown that various approaches to reduce noise should be considered. Among them are two variants for the housing that were rated as promising. Such houses can be designed as a tunnel or covered constructions that not only reduce noise, but can also act as environmentally friendly solutions.

Planned measures to reduce noise

The initiative of implementing noise protection measures in the West in Innsbruck results from the long -term complaints of the residents about the high noise loads. Traffic noises are a major problem, especially during rush hour, which affects the quality of life in the area. The planned measures promise an improvement in the situation and were supported by comprehensive analyzes. One expected that the housing will not only reduce the noise, but also contributes to better air quality and healthier living conditions for the residents.

The housing is a costly project, but the authorities consider it necessary to meet the demands of the residents. The exact costs have not yet been determined and the financing strategies are currently being developed. A transparent process is the key to strengthen the public's trust in the project.

In the discussion about implementation, environmental protection aspects are also of central importance. The noise reduction strategy should not only cover the immediate effects on the residents, but also take into account the ecological consequences. The authorities have emphasized that the houses are designed in an environmentally friendly manner in order to minimize negative effects on the surrounding nature. These considerations are part of a comprehensive strategy to improve the quality of life in urban areas. Further information on the plans and their implementation can be found in a detailed report, As reported www.tt.com.

The residents and local community organizations are involved in this process, so that their concerns and suggestions are heard. The next steps are now being defined to advance the project and to announce further details on the planned measures. The authorities are optimistic that well -thought -out solutions can be met with both the noise problems and that new standards in urban development can be set.
