Impacts
As with all major infrastructure projects, surrounding communities may experience some impacts during construction. The Project supports businesses and residents to continue to lie, work, study and shop in their community.
Please contact us on 1800 105 105 to discuss support available if you are impacted by our works. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we progress the delivery of SRL East at Cheltenham.
How we will manage our works
We will minimise the impacts to the community by:
- Covering trucks to minimise dust
- Monitoring noise, dust and vibration levels
- Using noise blankets and hoarding to minimise noise, dust and light spill
- Safely removing hazardous materials in accordance with regulations
- Using water and dust suppressants
- Maintaining access to homes and businesses.
