A sound fence works on mass and sealed gaps rather than height: tongue-and-groove wood or composite with a dense core, set close to the noise and blocking your view of it. Expect the traffic to fade rather than disappear.

The material read
Mass and weather fight each other here. A dense wood panel absorbs summer humidity and dries in winter, so boards go up with the seasonal swing planned in, never butted tight in August. Composite and mass-loaded cores ignore moisture and hold their seal, which wins coastal jobs. The sail area is large either way, so posts go 48 inches down in concrete.
A gap-free, heavy barrier for yards backing a busy road. Cuts perceived noise without pretending to deliver silence. Request a project quote.

It reduces noise rather than blocking it. A solid barrier that hides the road from view typically drops perceived loudness enough that conversation on a patio stops competing with traffic. Steady tire noise responds best. Sirens and aircraft do not, because that sound arrives over the top.
Tall enough to break the line of sight from where you sit to the source, usually six feet and sometimes eight. Height only helps once the fence is sealed at the bottom, so gaps get closed first. Massachusetts towns commonly cap residential fences at six feet, so anything taller needs local approval.
Composite panels and cedar tongue-and-groove boards need different construction details. Request a quote for the proposed material, panel joints, height and posts. A panel that opens at its joints loses sound-control effectiveness.
