This paper proposes the strategies for mitigating traffic noise based on the results from in situ tire/road noise measurements, laboratory experiments and software simulation. To assess the performance of noise mitigation, the factors related to tire/pavement noise such as types and materials of the flexible pavements are discussed. Field test results indicate that traffic noise is affected by vehicle types, vehicle speeds, types of tires and types of flexible pavements. The laboratory test results show that pavement materials with porosity, macro-texture, flexibility and doublelayer can achieve the object of noise mitigation. Simulation results indicate that traffic noise can also be reduced considerably by lowering the speed limit of heavy vehicles, as well as by controlling volumes of traffic flow. In general, limiting the speeds of heavy vehicles and utilizing lownoise flexible pavements are more effective than just setting up noise barriers in urban areas as far as traffic noise mitigation is concerned.
