This paper describes the assessment of noise situation at Držić and Branimir Street road intersection in city of Zagreb. This assessment includes a description of current noise situation, a comparison of current and previous noise situations, and a comment on how to reduce the noise levels and define the adequate monitoring procedure at this specific location. Considering the fact that Croatia does not have a national calculation method, noise modelling is carried out by means of German national method RLS 90, modified RLS 90 method adjusted to local conditions in Croatia, and interim NMPB-Routes-96 method recommended by Directive 2002/49/EC. Research results presented in paper can be helpful in defining monitoring procedures at other similar locations, as well as in defining unified solution applicable to wider areas.
