Abstract(s)
Urban noise is nowadays a major problem in society, reaching values likely to cause health disorders. Considering that cyclists may be exposed to urban noise as well as to other noisy activities (e.g. personal listening devices), and that previous studies addressing this subject are scarce, this issue becomes important. This study aims to analyze the cyclists’ perceptions about the noise levels that they can be exposed, as well as to characterize the sound pressure levels in the course of their activity.
