Community enquiries

Our standard work hours are 7:00am to 6:00pm Monday to Friday and 8:00am to 1:00pm on Saturdays. Respite periods from high noise impact works are regularly scheduled. We understand that many of these activities are noisy but we aim to minimise this disruption where possible. Out-of-hours works involving noisy works will be performed on no more than three nights per week and 10 nights per month at each site.
