5.1 Predicted Noise Levels

Noise levels (LAeq) from the proposed mixed use development were predicted at existing sensitive
receivers. Predictions were made with and without acoustic barriers (see Figure 5.1) as presented in
Table 5.3 and Table 5.4 respectively.

In addition LAmax noise levels were predicted from HRV manoeuvring in the bowser area. With no
acoustic barriers LAmax levels were predicted to be up to 57 dB(A) at the most exposed residence
across Ferrells Road. With the inclusion of the proposed barrier this level was predicted to be L Amax
49 dB(A).
