Communication noise is one of the most onerous environmental factors. The development of the motorway network causes the increase of its emission due to the increased traffic of vehicles. The article presents the results of measurements of the level of sound emitted by a car vehicle railway crossing. The tests were carried out at the intersection of a road with two railway tracks located in Bolechowo. The sound level was measured by Brüel and Kjaer 2250 set on a tripod at a height of 1.6 m and a distance of 1 meter from the road reflecting noise reception by an adult person.
