Traffic
Mitigation
Seaworthy provides turnkey services for new water transportation system
start-ups, reducing road traffic of both people and freight. One on-going
example is our roll-on, roll-off barge transport system for Boston Harbor’s
Water Resources Authority. Daily, up to two hundred “18 wheelers”
can be transported to and from the construction

site,
eight miles across Boston Harbor. We designed and financed a major part
of the system and its hauling equipment.
Noise
Mitigation
The impact of elevated noise levels on operating personnel, passengers,
and the surrounding environment is becoming increasingly important. Our
engineers are involved with noise surveys, source identification and control.
Recently, a new passenger ferry had noise levels so high that it could
not be placed in service. Through our efforts the noise level in the passenger
spaces was reduced to below owner’s requirements. We also developed
noise specifications and test procedures for a double hull tank barge
so that it could utilize its diesel powered pumps 24 hours a day in a
residential neighborhood.
