Özet

Environmental noise is one of the side effects of public rail transit systems which are becoming more common in large cities of Turkey. One of these problems is the noise which exhibits itself in two different forms; one being the noise that disturbs passenger and the other is the environmental noise caused by the rapid rail systems. Passenger are found to be less disturbed from noise as they are using the system but the people living in the close neighborhood are not getting any benefit of the system but only disturbance and severely disturbed by the environmental noise caused by the rapid rail transit systems. The disturbance and the objections will clearly be increased as the number of headways is to be doubled in the near feature. Hence the environmental noise caused by the rapid rail transit systems is investigated and their problems are pointed out in this paper.
