NOISE MAPPING, ANALYSIS AND MITIGATION OF HURGHADA AIRPORT
Eman Khallaaf Fathallah Khallaaf;
Abstract
During the course of 20th century, air-transport has become one of the world's most influential industries. Aviation facilities the expansion of world trade and provides opportunities for travel and tourism.
Aviation is one of the worldwide environmental problems. Airports face several environmental constraints including noise. Aircraft noise is the most significant environmental problem arising from arriving and departing of aircrafts. Therefore, airport related noise is an important issue that affect the passengers, the surrounding communities and nearby residential areas.
Hurghada airport is one of the key drivers of the economic growth of Egyptian airports. Over seven million passengers travelled through Hurghada airport every year. The expected increase in 2030 is twelve million. It is generally accepted that significant improvements to the environmental impacts of aircraft noise will be needed if the long-term growth of air transport is to be sustained.
The main goal of the study is the reduction of noise levels and its mitigations at Hurghada airport and surroundings area; to manage negative impacts of noise to make the right balance with positive economic and social benefits of the airports.
