Notify us of work outside permitted construction hours

Informing both the Council and the community is a key noise management measure for any construction works conducted outside typical hours.

If you must do construction work, including roading and maintenance, outside normal permitted hours of 7.30am to 6pm (Monday to Saturday) complete the construction noise notification form.
