| Popis: | International audience; The European Directive 2002/49/EC requires agglomerations of more than 100,000 inhabitants to produce strategic noise maps. In the Ile-de-France region, 14 urban areas with a total population of 10 million are concerned. The strategic noise maps for these 14 agglomerations were finalised by Bruitparif in 2018. Bruitparif applied the health impact assessment methodology recommended by the WHO to carry out a detailed territorial diagnosis of the issues related to road, rail and air traffic noise within the 14 urban areas concerned. For this purpose, population exposures were assessed on the basis of noise maps and the associated risks in terms of annoyance and sleep disturbance were calculated using the exposure-response functions published by the WHO in October 2018. The work continued with the valuation of healthy life-years (disability-adjusted life-years, DALY) lost due to annoyance and sleep disturbance caused by transport noise. Two types of maps could be produced with a 250 m� grid as well as at the level of the commune: maps of collective health impacts related to population noise exposure and maps of average individual risk corresponding to the potential impact per individual. The combination of these two types of information has made it possible to highlight significant territorial disparities and to identify the sectors most concerned by the health issues related to noise, an essential prerequisite for prioritizing public action. With nearly 108,000 years of healthy life lost each year in the Ile-de-France dense zone, or an average of 10.7 months per inhabitant over a lifetime, the results obtained confirm the trends highlighted by the WHO at European level: among the environmental risk factors in urban areas, noise appears to be the second leading cause of morbidity behind air pollution. |
