Traffic Sound Effects

Our free traffic sounds are the perfect background to any busy city or town ambience and we also have slower moving traffic ideal for suburban and rural scenes or backgrounds too. In fact, we’ve got traffic sound effects from all around the world, including the UK, many European countries, Asia, the United States of America and many more. There are fast moving vehicles on motorways and highways at various times of day, busy roads inside and outside of cities, including traffic jams, busy trunk roads and much more. We also try to record each with variations in weather, such as wet and dry road surfaces. The thing that grabs you when you listen to these sfx is how different they sound depending on the country. With this in mind, I hope you’ll find these sfx useful. If you can think of any sounds we are missing, please let us know so we can try to record them and add them to our library.

This is a really long track or sound title that we need to account for and maybe it gets even longer so we need to ensure we have space for it
