Résumé
Noise is one of the most significant sources of environmental pollution in metro cities. Traffic noise plays an important role to contribute to ambient noise pollution. Noise pollution monitoring was carried out using sound level meter mounted on the cycle with the help of mould fixed on it. Cycle is a noiseless mode of transport and therefore, it was used for noise monitoring over 700 locations in Nagpur City. Noise levels were recorded at each location for 5 min during peak rush hours of traffic in the morning and in the evening at an interval of 1 s leading to around 300 readings each. Noise indices like L
