A noise barrier wall having a transition area in the region of at least one unbounded edge and which employs controlled diffraction of sound to enhance the sound reducing properties thereacross. The transition area of the noise barrier is provided with either a row of absorptive shaped splitter panels, or a row of pickets, or other means of controlled transparency which provide acoustical shadowing equal to or greater than that of a solid wall for the frequency regions of interest. |
