  • Midday time intervals showed the highest average noise levels, driven by traffic congestion and commercial activities.
  • Spatial analysis identified Kanchrapara and Halisahar as noisier due to unplanned urbanization, prompting concerns.
  • The findings highlight the necessity for effective policy measures to address road traffic noise and its health implications.
