Construction of an acoustic wall to prevent noise nuisance in Freud Avenue ► Watch the discussion in the city council

1. It is not clear why a tenant in Ramat Eshkol who lives on Freud Road has to endure decibels that exceed the standard, harm the quality of life, hearing, and the nervous system! I personally already suffer from strong tinnitus! I had to move after it had already hurt me for fear that it would get worse. How is it possible that the mayor will give her opinion to the beauty of the city at the expense of the health of the residents???? The disdain for us goes beyond all limits! Because it is not the speed of the cars, but the very rise of the road that forces the driver to press the hump in order to go up the hill!!

   • But you knew when you bought where you were buying and what was around, so the question is why did you buy an apartment there anyway?
     The noise there is no different, for example, from any main street in the country where vehicles pass at the entrance to the cities. Almost every city in the center of the country has a neighborhood of villas - the neighborhood is adjacent to a main road, they don't build huge acoustic walls but plant trees and the houses face the neighborhood streets and not the road. Maybe we need to clear a building in Ramat Eshkol so that the buildings face into Ramat Eshkol and not to the road. It seems strange to make an acoustic wall when most of the neighborhood is already above retaining walls 10-20 meters above the height of the road, so why do you want an acoustic wall 40 meters high? Such a wall will also hide the view of the sea and the walls of the houses, then why complain that the view is gone? Some sense gentlemen. This is something that can be reduced with more public transport, more trees along this road

2. It's time to do something about the car and motorcycle races at night on the streets of Haifa, especially in the Moriah area.
   lawlessness lack of governance anarchy everything is true where are the police? What about the mobility of the municipal inspectors, why don't they recruit them and give them the authority to stop unruly cars? How long will we suffer? We live in stables, polluted streets, pigs threatening, cars rampaging through the streets, it's time to replace the mayor who lost her way and disappointed the majority who voted for her, why aren't they heard? Enough to do something, where are the greens??

3. All Yotam Street, Moriah Circle, Wingate/Kish, the lower city
   Basically the whole city from north to south sounds like a highway, something shocking.

   and not only the passenger vehicles,
   Also those angels who sit in the parking lot with their car on for 40 minutes and because of them people drink in a cafe to the sounds of a machine factory.

   I wonder what solutions there are, the acoustics in the city are really something.

4. Residents of Ramat Eshkol have been living there for 30 years with the same road.
   There are no noise nuisances and acoustic walls is the ugliest thing there is, the neighborhood will feel like a corral.
   The residents of Netanya complain about the acoustic walls that blocked their neighborhood, and here Hafer wants to make them in Haifa
   Maybe they will just change the windows in their houses to triple glazing and make acoustic insulation by planting a lot of vegetation in front of the road??
   By the way, the way to reduce the traffic noise is to transfer the residents to public transportation.
   Instead of an acoustic wall, a cable car will be advanced where it really should have been erected between Horev and the stadium and the Mt.

5. Instead of an acoustic wall, it is appropriate to fulfill the promise to rescue imprisoned neighborhoods.
   to open descent channels from the neighborhoods❗️❗️❗️
