Reduction of noise emission into the environment is a priority of transport policies of individual countries, as that of well as the European Union. Road traffic noise has a dominant share in the total noise production and is influenced by traffic volume, traffic composition, traffic flow speed, as well as the technical condition of the road pavement, i.e. the condition of its wearing course. The installation of low-noise wearing courses on road pavements is a very effective acoustic measure directly at the noise source. Based on the recommendation of the technical committee TC 227/WG5 of the European Committee for Standardisation CEN and on the results of the European project ROSSANE, the CPX method, which was published as an ISO standard in March 2017, is exclusively preferred for the monitoring of road pavement noise. Technologies of asphalt mixtures reducing noise have been applied in the Czech Republic. These technologies have their specific features. Regarding the acoustic assessment of these technologies in the Czech Republic, "binding technical specifications" TP 259 Asphalt mixtures for low-noise wearing courses, published by the Ministry of Transport in December 2017, are in use.
