Particular attention is paid to the noise action planning. The creation of a new plan was started this year because the last one was adopted in 2020. The noise action planning is crucial to develop measures to reduce traffic noise on the most used roads.

The city administration has already started the new planning, which is to be completed by the middle of the year. Here, the membership of the citizens on the decision-making processes plays an important role, such as the guidelines of the Federal Environment Agency illustrate). These emphasize that the participation of the public is crucial for the acceptance and successful implementation of noise reduction measures.
