Relationship models of traffic volume vs noise level in arterial and collector roads

Abstract: 

The research aimed at analyzing relationship pattern of vehicles volume and noise level, especially on arterial and collector roads in Kendari City. Analytical approach with descriptive statistic method is using scatter plots. The results show that vehicles volume has significant relationships with noise. Noise level variability could be explained by vehicles volume of 75.2% at arterial and 77% collector road. In these case, heavy vehicles with a composition 4% has a significant role in influencing to noise on arterial road. While at the collector road with a composition 3% is not significant to noise fluctuation. The noise more dominant influenced by motorcycles and light vehicles reached 97% composition.
