Abstract
European regulations related to road traffic noise, which is the greatest source of traffic noise, are presented. Noise calculation methods most frequently used in European countries are examined. Authors analyze the possibility of using such methods in Croatia where attempts are currently made to harmonize national regulations with European recommendations. European Union guidelines for harmonization of existing noise level calculation methods, issued to foster establisment of an uniform European method, are also presented.
