To better understand mixed transportation noise–annoyance response,
a study was undertaken in Hong Kong to (1) unravel factors affecting
annoyance response to mixed transportation noise; (2) contrast noise–annoyance
relationships between road traffic and railway noise dominant situations;
and (3) explain the differences, if any, between the two using structural
equation modelling from the data collected in a social survey. Results
of this study show that annoyance is largely determined by noise
disturbance and perceived noisiness. Personal noise sensitivity,
attitudes towards different means of transport and perceived quality
of the living environment are secondary contributing factors. When
road traffic noise dominates, annoyance is primarily determined by
noise disturbance caused by the peaks of railway noise events; when
railway noise dominates, peaks of train events can induce annoyance
response directly without causing disturbance. Policy implications
of such results on how to minimize noise–annoyance response are discussed
in the paper.
