Noise abatement is being an increasing challenge for the European road administrations. Cost effective solutions are needed in order to fulfil the requirements for good living conditions for the people living as neighbours to the road infrastructure. One promising approach can be to integrate noise abatement considerations and solutions in the ongoing process of maintaining the road infrastructure . Pavement management systems are often used as an effective tool in the planning of maintenance of the road networks. Therefore it is an obvious challenge to integrate noise considerations in pavement management systems in an operational and effective way. On this background the EU project SILENCE started in February 2005 also includes a Task F3 focusing on this subject. The title of this Task is: "Improved systems for maintenance of quieter surfaces. In this report noise-related parameters of existing pavement monitoring systems are presented and evaluated and the possibilities of integrating acoustic parameters in pavement management systems are discussed.
