Noise impacts

As with all major infrastructure projects, surrounding communities may experience some impacts during construction.

Please contact us on 1800 105 105 to discuss support available if you are impacted by our works.

How we will manage our works

We will minimise impacts to the community by:

  • Where possible, keeping Whitehorse Road open in both directions on Friday and Saturday nights
  • Using noise blankets and fencing where possible
  • Turning off equipment when not in use
  • Applying water during cutting and drilling.

Future works

We will build a temporary bridge on Whitehorse Road to keep traffic moving throughout construction. We will provide further details of these works over coming months.
