We are looking at a house that backs up to a busy road. ANyone ever use sound barrier fence before?

The house is very nice and the garage is sweeeet (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif) ...BUT it close to road. Once the trees fill in we will not see the road but the sound might be an issue?? It's not bad just there (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)

Sound can be blocked very effectively with a solid wall or hill.

Trees work, but nothing works like a solid wall or hill.

And remember it is line of sight, i.e., if you can still see part of the freeway (elevated) then the sound will still be heard.

But Mark is also right...give it two weeks and you won't notice anything.

Only issue with noise is reselling.

Hope you can get the State to build a good high wall.
