Key highlights on regulations, policies, and program funding for the transportation professional
TRAINING: August 21, 2024, 9:00AM - 11:00AM PT [CLOSED]
Join us this August 21st as Dr. Hamid Rahai presents "Traffic Noise & Abatement", a 2-hour online course covering the sources, properties, and abatement strategies for traffic and roadway construction noise.
Traffic noise can have a significant impact on the health of travelers, local residents, and area wildlife. Federal and state guidelines provide methods for measuring and mitigating traffic and construction noise.
This workshop takes a look at common sources of roadway noise, how it's measured, which areas are impacted, common mitigation approaches, and best practice applications.
This course is fourth in a series of SETA modules designed to help transportation & construction engineers, planners, and project managers identify and reduce the environmental impacts of construction projects and roadway development.

Highway noise can be pervasive and constant and impact quality of life for neighboring communities.
FHWA is working to minimize the impact of highways on noise-sensitive areas through regulation, policy & guidance, training, and information-sharing.
Its Procedures for Abatement of Highway Traffic & Construction Noise requires state DOTs to analyze noise impacts and consider mitigation approaches.
Dr. Hamid Rahai is founding director of the Center for Energy & Environmental Research & Services (CEERS) and a professor at CSULB’s Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering and Biomedical Engineering departments.
Sustainable Engineering
The Sustainable Engineering Training Academy (SETA) provides transportation & construction engineering communities with module-based training in the areas of green buildings, environmental impacts of construction, and structural health monitoring systems.
Taught by industry & academic experts, SETA students gain practical knowledge in specific industry demand areas for career enhancement and improvement.
"There can be no doubt that the transportation sector is the most critical sector of our economy."
— Robert Brady
California LTAP supports local public transportation agencies across the state by providing professional training, technical assistance, knowledge transfer, and worksite best practices and innovations that help them plan, manage, and maintain their roadway infrastructure.
