The objective of this paper is to determine the economic benefits obtained by households in residential zones in the city of Medellin (Colombia) by the reduction of noise and vehicle traffic. For this purpose, a contingence valuation method was used combined with information regarding the perception of the acoustic quality at the different households. This scope led to the estimation of the expected willingness to pay for the reduction of one decibel in the noise levels that households are exposed to. Results show that if this program is applied in the city through a policy or project that is able to achieve a generalized reduction of 5 decibels in the noise generated by vehicle traffic, the aggregated economic benefits can reach up to ...
