[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How far does a house need to be from the Beltway in order to not hear this gentle hum and worry about fine particulates from tires?[/quote] I don’t know, but in my neighborhood in N Arlington I can hear the freight trains from 3 miles away at night. Sound tends to carry much further than we all assume AI could probably answer your second question about particulates from tires. Tons of articles have been written about that since the advent of heavier electric cars that put more pressure on the tires. The typical freeway sound walls may also help mitigate particulate matter but I’m not sure. [/quote]
