As a full candidate country of European Union (EU), Turkey have been preparing the strategic noise maps and action plans for the agglomerations and transportation infrastructures in the scope of National Regulation on Environmental Noise Assessment and Management (RAMEN), which was harmonized with the European Environmental Noise Directive (END) (2002/49/EC) in the year 2005. Up to 2019, the strategic noise maps were prepared for 46 agglomerations totally with a population of 46126881. Moreover, for the 41 airports, railways with totally 563 kilometres and 10704 km of major roads, the strategic noise maps were prepared. After 2016, the noise action plans have been starting to be prepared and 8 agglomerations completed it and the others have been starting to work on this.
