The need for studies regarding urban noise
pollution and its consequences on the environment
has motivated various researchers on the problem in
several countries [5-8]. Singh and Jain,[9] reported
the measurements of noise levels in residential,
industrial and commercial areas in the capital city of
India, Delhi that commercial areas have the highest noise levels followed by industrial and residential
areas. This is in contrary to the finding of Oyedepo
and Saadu, [8] who carried out measurement of noise
levels in busy roads/road junctions, residential,
industrial, commercial and passenger loading parks
areas in Ilorin city, Nigeria. The result showed that
industrial areas have the highest noise levels followed
by busy roads/road junctions, passengers loading
parks and commercial areas.
