The number of inhabitants who are exposed to traffic noise along major roads outside urban areas is gradually decreasing. In 2017, around 16,000 fewer inhabitants were exposed to high road traffic noise levels throughout the day compared to 2012. There is an important difference between inhabitants who live in the impact area of major motorways and highways, and inhabitants who live in the impact area of major main and regional roads.

The number of inhabitants who live in the impact area of major roads and railways in Ljubljana and are exposed to high noise levels did not change significantly between 2012 and 2017, and is not decreasing in accordance with the set objectives.

Systematic research on soil pollution shows that soils in Slovenia, with some exceptions, are not heavily polluted. In 42% of top soil samples taken in the period from 1999 to 2019, no exceedances of the limit values of dangerous substances into the soil were detected. In 56% of the samples the limit values of inorganic pollutants were exceeded and in 5% the limit values of organic pollutants. The most polluted areas with inorganic pollutants were Jesenice, Idrija, the Celje Basin and the Upper Mežica Valley.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transport in Slovenia almost tripled between 1986 and 2019. In the EU, GHG emissions from transport also exceed economic growth on average, but significantly less than in Slovenia; in the period 1990-2019, they increased by 23.6% in the EU-28. The main source of GHG is mostly road transport, which contributes as much as 99% of all GHG emissions from transport.
