摘要

This study investigated spatio-temporal variability of vehicular traffic noise and temperature of Minna city, Niger State. The study used the 15 minutes Septa-Square technique to count the number of vehicles across the purposively selected junctions and round-abouts. The Noise Meter Level (Dosemeter) was used to generate the vehicular traffic noise at the selected junctions and roundabouts. The thermometer was used to capture the hotness of the selected roundabouts and junctions. The result of the study showed that Tunga Roundabout had 7032 vehicular counts, which was the highest vehicular traffic flow in the city. Barago Roundabout had 93.4dB recorded as the highest noise level and Tunga Roundabout recorded 360C as the highest temperature reading. The afternoon and evening had the highest records of vehicular traffic flow, increased traffic noise level and the temperature readings. The study recommended the construction of flyover to reduce traffic flow especially at Tunga and City Gate roundabouts. It recommended the construction of link roads to divert traffics to other parts of the city, plant trees at the roundabouts and junctions in order to cushion the effects of high temperature without further delay.
