A new research has found that long-term exposure to road traffic noise may lead to an increased number of heart strokes and deaths. The research led by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine in partnership with Imperial College London and King's College London explained that as per their study, deaths were four percent more common among adults and the elderly in areas with day time road traffic noise of more than 60dB compared to areas with less than 55dB.
