methodologies and means for noise protection of urban environment” (acronym
“urbaNoise”) is aimed to facilitate the solution of these problems and deficiencies.
The project was initially proposed to last for four years (2011–2014); but by the
decision of the ministries responsible for science and technology development, it
was later extended on annual basis, and it is still underway in 2019.
The goals and objectives of the project, and the project plan and the organization
were described in a paper published at the start of the project [10]. The structure of
the goals and objectives of the product is repeated here in Table 1.
This paper presents an overview of the project resources, activities and main
results achieved in the period of 2011–2018. Its main goal is to assess the overall
impact of the project. Besides, with reference to the paper it describes the project
[10], and this paper should be a useful tool for planning further projects and actions.
2 Concept and Activities
According to the initial project plan, which was realized in the period 2011–2014, the
project consisted of six work packages, presented in Fig. 1. The first work package
“Theoretical and methodological project preparation” was of a preparatory character
and managerial type. The activities of the work package comprised of state-of-the-art
analysis, definition of the project aim and structure of the goals, the establishment
