This article explains the low noise that originates from the volume of public transportation and private transportation during COVID-19 (few vehicles are passing). The method used is surveying traffic data in the field (the noise is measured when the vehicle passes the roadside of the survey location), including when COVID-19 hits the city. This study refers to several cities, including the city of Bogor as the object of research. Traffic movements have slowed down due to the COVID-19 outbreak. This field method is effective in describing the current traffic conditions. In the findings, the indicator used to determine the vehicle volume noise contributes 12.10% of the calculation result of y = 70.718 + 0.013 x 1. The result is a significant effect seen on sound level meter (SLM) 3, with an increase of 70.718 dBA, distance from the sidewalk to the nearest building wall of 10.24 m, and vehicle speed of 80 km/hour. The results of this study will enhance the development of science and engineering technology as a contributor to cooperative support of government policies to comply with health protocols in this COVID-19 era.
