The work we’re doing

We’re doing this work to maintain and improve your neighbourhood and to keep our communities safe. The drawings overleaf show where we’ll be working. We’ll do our best to start the work on time. Factors such as wet weather could mean a delayed start. If the delay is significant, we’ll notify you. We know our work can be a bit loud, and that noise – particularly at night – can be disrupting. We try our best to avoid working at night but sometimes it is necessary in order to avoid wider disruption on the network or to get the job done faster. If we have to work at night, we’ll do our best to keep noise levels down.

We’ll handle traffic flow in and out of the area, and any detours

We will use a mix of temporary traffic signs (like stop/go signs) and traffic lights, and a lower speed limit. We do this to keep traffic moving and keep people who use the roads and footpaths safe. Traffic controllers will help to manage vehicle access. Please follow all signs, light signals and traffic directions. You’ll need to reduce your speed when you’re driving through the area.

Please follow all signs, light signals and traffic directions. Street parking may be limited during these hours. You may need to either park on your property or on a side road and walk to your property. Any vehicles parked in the work area will be towed to a safe position a short distance from the work site and may be returned to its original position by our approved towing company.

Every effort will be made to locate the owner before towing. However, to avoid any inconvenience we would appreciate if you could park your vehicle away from the work area on scheduled work shifts.
