The M25 during the Coronavirus Crisis, 2020
Crown Hill running under the M25

Recordings of the traffic on the M25 motorway, made from the overbridge which takes the driveway from Crown Hill, Upshire, to Copped Hall: one of the westbound traffic, one of eastbound traffic. Recorded using a crossed pair of Rode M5 microphones feeding into a Zoom H6 digital recorder.
Although the amount of traffic is much reduced, the noise is still present and intrusive, perhaps because people are driving faster. There seems to be a greater proportion of heavy vehicles on the road.
I recorded this because it’s a significant moment and because, in any case, road traffic is likely to sound very different in a few years with the move towards electric transport.
