Abstract:
The history of development for novel designed noise barriers and devices in
Japan is described. These are called edge modified noise barriers which have
noise reducing devices at the top position of the barriers. This kind of
barriers has been developed since 1980's. The application to road traffic
noise and the noise reducing abilities are shown. Finally recent new types of
barriers are present.
