Abstract

Ahmad A. Wahab street is the most dominant and busiest road in the center of Limboto, Gorontalo Regency. One of the factors causing a high level of vehicle density on this road is its location near a center for tourism, offices, and education, namely the University of Gorontalo and SMA Negeri 1 Limboto. The objective of this study was to analyze traffic performance and noise levels in Ahmad A. Wahab street, Limboto. Therefore, the object of this study is Ahmad A. Wahab street which is divided into four segments. In this study, the researchers examined primary data (i.e., traffic volume and noise intensity) and secondary data (i.e., road geometry). The tool used was a sound level meter to get the noise value. The type of method used in this study was descriptive. Results indicated that the highest traffic volume was found at 16.00-17.00 o'clock with a total flow of 1236.05 LVU/hour taken on Wednesday, December 1, 2021. Furthermore, the highest noise level (Leq) on each day of observation was 69.98 dB(A) in segment 1 on Monday, November 29, 2021, 68.44 dB(A) in segment 3 on Wednesday, December 1, 2021, and 69.98 dB(A) in segment 3 on Saturday, December 4, 2021.
