Cirrus Research helps Costa Rica combat traffic noise pollution
Leading noise monitoring specialist Cirrus Research has just completed a six-figure contract to supply the Costa Rican government with 50 of its Optimus Red sound level meters
The large order of 50 Optimus Reds were recently shipped to the Central American country where they are going to be deployed by the Government's Road Safety Council in a campaign to reduce traffic noise pollution in some of its most built-up cities such as the Capital, San Jose.
The Optimus Red kits had already been used by the Costa Rican police force and proved so popular among the officers for its user-friendly application and reading accuracy that the Road Safety Council followed suit. The project and the kits were even featured on the national news in Costa Rica as part of a story about how officers were trying to tackle traffic noise pollution on the streets.
