The strategic noise maps (CBS) are derived from the European Directive 2002/49/EC on the assessment and management of environmental noise. They are intended to inform the public about the levels of exposure to noise through graphic representations. In accordance with Article R572-5 of the Environmental Code, the CBS shall include maps of the areas affected by noise as defined by sound classification orders, known as ‘type B map’. Only classified lanes with an annual traffic of more than 3 million vehicles are visible. Sound classification orders are rules of constructability applicable in the sectors defined on both sides of the channels classified in accordance with articles R. 571-37 and R. 571-38 of the Environmental Code. The CBS of the major road infrastructure, whose annual traffic is more than 3 million vehicles, with a deadline for the Val-d’Oise, were approved by prefectural decree of 5 December 2018. They must be reassessed every 5 years.
