Map visualisation service (WMS) of the dataset: Sound classification of land transport infrastructure in the department of Meuse (Order n°2011-2612 of 20 December 2011)

In each department, the prefect is responsible for identifying and classifying land transport infrastructure according to their acoustic characteristics and traffic (L. 571-10 of the Environmental Code) Land transport infrastructure is classified into 5 categories according to the noise level it generates, with category 1 being the loudest. An area affected by noise is defined around each classified infrastructure. On the basis of this census, it determines, after consulting the municipalities, the sectors, in the vicinity of these infrastructures, affected by noise, the levels of noise to be taken into account and the technical requirements to be applied in the construction of a building in order to mitigate exposure to these nuisances. These areas must be reported in the graphical documents of the Local Urban Planning Plans.
