1 Introduction

1.1 Monitoring of construction noise is being undertaken by FCBC during the

construction of the new Forth Crossing and the associated road network. This

report covers the month of September 2013. The objective of this report is to

detail the monitoring that has been undertaken across the site during this

period and to present the construction noise monitoring results acquired for

September 2013.

1.2 Monitoring of construction noise has been undertaken in accordance with the

Code of Construction Practice (CoCP) and the Noise and Vibration

Management Plan (NVMP).

2 Noise Monitoring Locations

2.1 During September 2013, construction noise was monitored using permanent,

continuous noise monitoring devices at the locations listed in Table 1. The

majority of the monitors were installed throughout November and December

2011, with additional monitors installed at Scotstoun Park (Arup’s Office) and

Newton during February 2012 and a further sound level meter installed at

Whinny Hill during March 2012.

2.2 At some monitoring locations, the noise monitoring devices are accompanied

by associated weather stations. Weather stations are present at Echline Field,

Tigh-Na-Grian, Clufflat Brae, Dundas Home Farm, Butlaw Fisheries, Linn Mill

and Whinny Hill.

2.3 Various construction works were undertaken across the site during September

2013. The main construction activities undertaken in the locality of each of the

noise meters during the period have been listed in Table 1.

3 Noise Monitoring Results

3.1 All noise monitoring results for construction days have been presented in

charts using the template provided in the Construction Noise Monitoring

Information Note, as available on the project website

(http://www.transportscotland.gov.uk/files/documents/projects/forth-

replacement/FRC_Construction_Noise_Monitoring_Information_Note__2_.pdf).

All charts can be found in the appendices of this report.

3.2 With regard to the noise monitoring results charts, the following should be

noted:

All locations are considered as either ‘Main Crossing’ or ‘Network

Connections’, as set out in Table 1. Main Crossing works are

undertaken during the day, evening and night time periods. Network

connection works, however, are undertaken during the daytime only.

The inclusion of data in the graphs reflects this. Although Linn Mill is

considered as a network location, the potential for marine works near

the south shore to be heard has been recognised. As a result, evening

and night time data has been included for this location although no

network connection construction activities have been undertaken during

these periods.

Noise data for days, evening and nights on which no construction works

were conducted have been excluded from the monthly average results

presented in the graph. Additionally, no investigations into the LAFmax

exceedances during these periods have been made as they would have

been caused by non-construction related factors. However, noise

results (LAeq and LAFmax) for any days, evenings and nights on which no

construction works have been conducted have been presented in the

graphs in greyed out areas.

An average for Sunday construction noise data has been included on

the graphs where applicable; in locations where no Sunday works have

been undertaken no average is shown.

As set out in the CoCP, the assessment time for evening, nights and

Sunday daytime is 1 hour periods. To present the construction noise

results for these periods, therefore, the maximum LAFmax (fast time

response) and maximum LAeq within the overall evening/night time

period has been taken. It should be noted, therefore, that the average

shown for these periods is an average of only the highest LAeq results.

Where noise data is missing for days, evening or nights during which

construction works were conducted, this has been indicated. Data is

missing for Echline from 12 to 16 September due to device error.

3.3 Results demonstrate that the monthly average total construction noise results

for daytime were within the threshold limits for all monitoring locations for

September 2013, with the exception of Scotstoun. For the evening and night

time periods, all monitoring locations, with the exception of night time at Butlaw

Fisheries, were within the threshold limits. With regard to the Sunday averages

(for applicable monitoring locations), exceedances of the threshold were noted

for the following periods and the locations listed; Sunday daytime average at

Butlaw Fisheries, Inchgarvie, Clufflat Brae and Linn Mill, and Sunday night time

average at Butlaw Fisheries, Clufflat Brae, Linn Mill and Tigh-Na-Grian.

3.4 The exceedance of the night time average at Butlaw is not thought to have

been caused by increased noise levels due to construction. The night time

average was found to be affected by increased noise levels due to waves

breaking on the shore. Where audio is available, it demonstrates that the

increased levels were caused by waves. It should also be noted that screening

and distance attenuation should be considered as these factors result in a

lowering of the noise levels to within the threshold level at the nearest sensitive

receptors; attended monitoring has illustrated a drop of at least 5 – 10 dB from

Butlaw Fisheries to the nearest sensitive receptors with respect to noise

generated around the south shore area of the estuary.

3.5 With regard to the exceedances of the Sunday averages, both daytime and

night time, at the locations noted, a review of the Sunday works has confirmed

that only marine activities were undertaken during these periods. When the

specific works undertaken are considered, alongside locations and associated

distances, it is deemed highly unlikely that the exceedances of the Sunday

averages were related to construction works.

3.6 Furthermore, it should be noted that all the averages reported for day time,

evening, night time and Sunday periods, are based only on the highest LAeq

levels for 1 hour periods which can affect the averages.

3.7 The exceedance of the daytime average at Scotstoun is due to increased

background noise levels due to the location of the meter directly adjacent to the

road. The average for September is consistent with that recorded in previous

months.

3.8 During September 2013, some exceedances of the maximum noise thresholds

also occurred. Each exceedance of the threshold was investigated using

triggered audio recordings, records of construction works (i.e. site programmes

and diaries and daily marine reports) and analysis of weather station data,

where required. A Noise and Vibration Investigative Report (NVIR) spread

sheet has been produced detailing the results of the investigation for each

exceedance. Where the exceedances are due to construction works, a

detailed NVIR has been completed which details the results of the investigation

in addition to any additional mitigation measures required.

Forth Crossing Bridge Constructors - A Joint Venture of Hochtief Solutions AG, American Bridge International,Dragados, S.A. and Galliford Try Infrastructure Limited (Trading as Morrison Construction)

3.9 Investigations of the exceedances of the maximum noise level thresholds show

the majority to have occurred as a result of non-construction related noise,

notably due to bird calls, some periods of adverse weather and localised noises

at nearby properties. At some locations, notably Scotstoun and Echline,

existing traffic noise had an effect on maximum noise levels during the period

covered in this report.

3.10 Where an exceedance due to construction works was identified, the works

were investigated as soon as practicably reasonable and a detailed NVIR was

completed, within which any additional mitigation measures were recognised

and subsequently implemented where practicable.

3.11 The daytime LAFmax threshold was exceeded during September on six

occasions. Three exceedances, recorded at Butlaw Fisheries, Clufflat Brae

and Inchgarvie during the night time period, were found to be caused by the

night works at Society Road. A daytime construction related exceedance was

also recorded at Butlaw Fisheries which was caused by the removal of the trial

pit in the estuary. A further daytime exceedance was recorded at Clufflat Brae,

where grass cutting in close proximity to the meter caused an exceedance of

the threshold. At Dundas, a daytime exceedance was also caused by a tipper

tipping material for the construction of the environmental bund at this location.

All construction related exceedances were investigated and mitigation

measures implemented where possible; the relevant NVIRs provide more detail

with regard to each exceedance.

3.12 A summary of the findings for exceedances occurring at each of the locations

can be found in Table 2. All construction related exceedances are detailed in

Table 3; further information on related remedial actions is detailed in the

relevant NVIR.

Summary of Exceedance Details

ButlawFisheries

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on41 occasions (daytime, 9; evening, 8; night time, 24). One night timeexceedance was caused by works at Society Road, with one daytimeexceedance due to the removal of the trial pit. All other exceedanceswere attributed to non-construction factors, notably birds and waves.

Clufflat Brae

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on37 occasions (daytime, 10; evening, 7; night time, 20). Twoexceedances were attributable to construction works; one night timeexceedance was related to the night works at Society Road, with oneday time exceedance caused by grass cutting close to the meter. Allother exceedances were found to be largely due to birds, dogsbarking, wind and residents at nearby properties.

InchgarvieLodge

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on42 occasions (daytime, 9; evening, 9; night time, 24). One night timeexceedance was due to construction works at Society Road.However, investigations found residents at the property and birds tobe the main contributing factors to the exceedances at this location.

Linn MillDuring September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on34 occasions (daytime, 7; evening, 5; night time, 22). Theexceedances were largely caused by birds.

Tigh-Na-Grian

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on55 occasions (daytime, 28; evening, 1; night time, 26). Exceedanceswere due to non-construction factors, notably birds.

DundasHome Farm

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on10 occasions. One exceedance was caused by the works at theearth bund at this location. Exceedances were largely due togardening works at the property.

Echline

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on19 occasions. No exceedances at this location were due toconstruction activities. Exceedances were largely attributed tovehicles passing by on the adjacent roads.

Springfield

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on 9occasions. The exceedances were not caused by construction worksat this location. The majority of exceedances were largely due tolocal residents and dogs barking.

ScotstounDuring September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on25 occasions. Exceedances were largely attributed to vehiclespassing by on the adjacent road.

Whinny Hill

During September the maximum noise threshold was exceeded on13 occasions. Exceedances were not due to construction activities.A range of factors were found to cause exceedances at this location,including birds, dogs barking, and vehicles.
