16. Abstract
This project will provide the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) with information about the
effects of the current cost-effectiveness criterion. The project has reviewed (1) the cost-effectiveness
criteria used by other states, (2) the noise barrier construction history of the other states, and (3) the effect
the cost-effectiveness criteria has had on noise barrier construction. The researchers examined the effect
of the Texas’ cost-effectiveness criterion on decisions regarding noise barrier construction during recent
years. Typical residential scenarios where highway noise impacts residences were also evaluated to
determine when the cost-effectiveness criterion would indicate the need for constructing a noise barrier.
Recommendations are made concerning the optimum monetary level for that criterion.

 IMPLEMENTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
This project provided a detailed review of the relation between the history of noise
barrier construction and the cost-effectiveness criterion. It examined the history of the cost-
effectiveness criterion in other states, as well as how the cost-effectiveness criterion has
affected noise barrier construction in Texas. In addition, this report discusses how the cost-
effectiveness criterion impacts typical cases where noise abatement is modeled using the
newest Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) noise model. Based on the information
obtained through this study, the researchers recommend the following:
