How was the design of the acoustic fences selected?
The acoustic fences are a key component of the CMO project’s acoustic mitigation plan, as recommended by BKL Consultants (the City’s acoustic experts). The acoustic mitigation plan was finalized after public input was solicited during three public consultation sessions in 2007. Details of the plan are available on the project website and in various CMO Project publications. The acoustic fences are located on the east and west sides of Coast Meridian Road, as well as along the new Lougheed-Meridian Connector.
