Perhaps you should think of using noises in your garden to counteract the noise from the road. Bamboo does have a rustling sound, wooden wind chimes are more pleasant than traffic, there are various grasses that make rustle sounds etc.
gazfocus, soz to be unhelpful but I think 12 noon on a Sat was a quiet time. What about 7am on a weekday morning and 4.30pm to 6.30pm in the week? Hopefully you will be off to work at those peak times. Do hope you don't eventually think the 50K wasn't worth the noise.
Please go back at a peak time and see what traffic is about.

To be honest the sound of wind chimes is not pleasanter than any sound. They are an abomination.
Would you have room for a water feature of some sort? It might help to mask the road noise a bit.
