Number of persons affected by harmful or annoying road and railway noise (agglomeration analysis)
This dataset provides statistical analyses for the year 2021 on the number of persons and dwellings affected by exceedances of limit values (immission limit values ILV under the Noise Abatement Ordinance NAO) from road traffic noise and railway noise.
The analysis is carried out at the level of agglomerations based on the FSO spatial classification 2020 (as of 6 April 2025). The basis is the permanent resident population and the number of dwellings from the Federal Statistical Office (FSO) Building and Dwelling Statistics (BDS) 2021. The affected figures are reported separately by noise source and for the periods daytime (06:00–22:00), night-time (22:00–06:00) and day/night. In the day/night category, a person affected by a limit value exceedance both during the day and at night is counted only once (the two periods are not added together).
The results serve as broad-scale information on the noise situation in Switzerland and are not legally binding.
