In this study it is used together with the official noise prediction methods to estimate the acoustic and monetary impact of transporting 1 ton of cargo through two separate transportation corridors from Gothenburg to Stockholm in Sweden, one via railway and the other via truck transport. The noise cost per transported ton is approximately twice as high for rail transport due to higher noise emissions per ton and more exposed dwellings close to the railway.
