Abstract
The modern society development involves new and diverse issues considering urban environmental pollution. Traffic generated sound and vibration are two upto-date urban environmental pollution causes besides air and water pollution ones. Public transportation in metropolitan areas is a major and constant all levels environmental pollution cause. Electric engines as an alternative to internal combustion ones could reduce the air pollution caused by urban public transportation. The tram network is an important element of this approach even if a poor condition of tram network elements could be a major cause of sound and vibration environmental pollution. This research paper is a study of a particular case considering the vibration level transmitted to a building close to tram network in the town of Braila City.
