ABSTRACT
During the last five years there had been a rapid change in the opulation of NCR (National Capital Region, Delhi). This has resulted a substantial change in the traffic density in the commercially developed cities. This traffic growth has made the noise level on the roads beyond the prescribed limits. This paper is an attempt forthe measurements of noise levels, under traffic conditions over ifferent time span in NCR zone, to estimate, whether these levels exceeds permissible levels, (65 dB (A)) prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board, New Delhi, the variation in discomfort of road traffic Police constable was assessed by means of aquestionnaire, to develop the relationship between road traffic noise levels and percentage of discomfort of road traffic Police constable using fuzzy expert system. The modelling technique is based on the concept of fuzzy expert system, which offers a convenient way of representing the relationships between the inputs and output ofa system in the form of IF-THEN rules. Finally results revels that higher road traffic noise levels lead to the increase of discomfort of traffic Police constable.Keywords: Road traffic noise, Traffic Police constable
