Traffic is one of the most signif- icant sources of air pollution in both the indoor and outdoor school environment. Pollutants directly emitted from cars, trucks, and other motor vehi- cles are found in higher concentrations near major roads, with the high- est levels within the first five hundred (500) feet of a roadway -- children who attend schools near roadways have increased risks of expo- sure and the detrimental health impacts therefrom. Children who experi- ence consistent exposure to air pollution have increased risks of asth- ma, chronic respiratory issues, reduced lung function, cardiovascular effects, and neurobehavioral dysfunction. These effects are long-lasting and contribute to changes in overall school performance for students. In addition to the health effects caused by air pollution, major road- ways create a considerable amount of noise pollution. Children are particularly susceptible to the effects of loud, constant noise, which comes from close proximity to highways.
