Nur Shazwanie Rosehan, Azlan Abas

Abstract


Pencemaran bunyi bising trafik di bandar sememangnya tidak dapat dielakkan bagi kawasan yang sedang membangun. Justeru itu, matlamat kajian ini adalah untuk menilai tahap pencemaran bunyi bising trafik di kawasan bandar yang sedang pesat membangun iaitu Bandar Batu Pahat, Johor. Alatan yang digunakan bagi mencerap data kebisingan trafik ialah Integrating Sound Level Meter RS-232. Nilai purata kebisingan serta bilangan kenderaan juga direkodkan bagi kesemua sembilan (9) stesen persampelan Bandar Batu Pahat yang dipilih secara persampelan mudah pada hari bekerja dan hari hujung minggu, di waktu pagi,
tengah hari, petang dan malam. Hasil kajian yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahawa nilai purata tertinggi keseluruhan bagi kawasan pusat bandar ialah 74.0 dBA pada hari hujung minggu mengatasi purata tertinggi pada hari bekerja iaitu 73.0 dBA. Secara keseluruhannya, purata kebisingan bunyi bising trafik di lokasi kajian ini adalah melebihi piawaian yang ditetapkan oleh JAS iaitu melebihi 65 dBA. Oleh itu, perundangan yang berkaitan dengan pencemaran bunyi perlu dikuatkuasakan dengan lebih tegas di samping langkah bukan perundangan. Sementara itu, masyarakat perlu sedar akan bahayanya pencemaran bunyi ini kepada manusia agar dapat bersama-sama membantu dalam meningkatkan kualiti hidup manusia dan pengurusan persekitaran yang sistematik.

Abstract

Urban traffic noise pollution is inevitable for developing areas. Hence, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the level of traffic noise pollution in the rapidly developing urban area, Bandar Batu Pahat, Johor. The tools used to observe the data of traffic noise was RS-232 Integrating Sound Level Meter. Average noise value and number of vehicles were also recorded for all nine (9) sampling stations at Batu Pahat that was selected by convenient sampling method on weekdays and weekends, in the morning, noon, evening and night. The
results showed that the highest average overall rating for the city center area on weekends was 74.0 dBA which is higher than the average of the working day which was 73.0 dBA. Overall, the average noise of traffic at this study location exceeded the standard set by the DOE which was more than 65 dBA. Therefore, legislation relating to sound and noise pollution should be enforced more strictly in addition to non-legislative measures. Meanwhile, the community should be aware of the dangers of this noise to humans in order to help in improving human’s quality of life and a systematic environmental management.
