Yehlisa umsindo odalwa ukuklwebhana phakathi kwamasondo nendawo yomgwaqo.
I-“Quiet Asphalt” izonciphisa izinga lomsindo emigwaqweni yase-Istanbul ngama-decibel ayishumi. Le phrojekthi ihlose ukubhekana nenkinga ejulile yokungcoliswa komsindo edolobheni elikhulu, kubikwe ku- "Hurriet Daily News".
Ngokusho kwe-Turkish Statistical Institute, kunezimoto ezibhalisiwe ezingu-4,940,010 e-Istanbul, ezilingana nenani labantu base-23 (kuzo zonke izifunda ezingu-81) zezwe. Lokhu kuthutheleka kwezimoto akugcini nje ngokukhulisa ukukhathazeka mayelana nokungcoliswa komoya nokuminyana, kodwa futhi kwandisa inkinga yokunukubezeka komsindo, kuphawula incwadi.
Ukuze kuliwe nale nkinga, i-İSFALT, inkampani engaphansi kukaMasipala Omkhulu wase-Istanbul, isebenzisa i-Quiet Asphalt Project ukunciphisa umsindo wethrafikhi, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni eziseduze nezindawo zokuhlala.
Itiyela elithulile, elikhiqizwe ukunciphisa umsindo obangelwa ukungqubuzana phakathi kwamasondo nendawo yomgwaqo, lingawuqeda kakhulu umsindo okhiqizwa emigwaqeni. Izikhala zomoya kule ngxube ye-asphalt ekhethekile, ekhiqizwa ngezithasiselo ezisekelwe ku-resin, zifaka isandla ekuhambeni okuthule kwezimoto.
Ngokuhlolwa, kwatholakala ukuthi izinga lomsindo okhishwa izimoto emigwaqweni eklanywe ngokukhethekile embozwe itiyela elithulile lehla ngama-decibel angu-10 uma kuqhathaniswa nokushayela emigwaqweni evamile.
Kulo lonke elaseYurophu, okungenani abantu abayizigidi eziyi-100 bachayeka emazingeni alimazayo omsindo ovela nje esiminyaminya. Ukuchayeka emsindweni ongafuneki kungabangela ingcindezi futhi kuphazamise ukulala, ukuphumula nokufunda. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuchayeka isikhathi eside kungadala izifo ezingathi sína njengomfutho wegazi ophakeme nesifo senhliziyo.
