Imagine living close to a busy highway. The loud sounds can make it tough to rest or sleep. Highway sound barriers block the noise. They help you feel calm and keep you healthy. Many cities use these barriers. Noise pollution affects millions of people.
For example:
Country
Percentage of Population Exposed to Noise Levels Above Recommended Thresholds
Spain
60%
EU (stricter criteria)
