Urban traffic grows under two seemingly contradictory demands of society. The first one, which covers the need for an increase in the mobility of people and goods; and the second, demanding that all negative effects caused by traffic, such as accidents, traffic jams, environmental damage, the impact on health and the quality of life of the inhabitants of the city, be reduced until they are eradicated. Sustainability is the key. To help the sustainable development of the city, the proposed transport solutions can be analyzed with great advantages in light of the traffic microsimulation models. The idea is to show the advantages of the use of traffic microsimulation models to search for sustainable solutions in terms of mobility and environmental noise. Finally, a bibliographic review of the research lines related to the dynamic traffic noise evaluation was carried out to show some practical applications in noise action plans and also to highlight and discuss some problems detected in the application of the method.

Conferencia inaugural del XI Congreso Iberoamericano de Acústica, FIA 2018. Cádiz Se trata de una revisión de los artículos que hasta el 2018 habían usado los modelos de microsimulación de tráfico para generar mapas de ruido y ser la base para planes de accion basados en la gestión del tráfico
