Work Hours
Construction is scheduled to occur Monday to Thursday from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m, and Friday and Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. No work will take place on public holidays. These hours are in accordance with Brisbane’s construction regulations.
Residents should be aware of several impacts during this period. Traffic detours will be in place near the work zones and within the Northshore Brisbane precinct. For everyone’s safety, please follow signage and directions from traffic controllers. Noise, dust, and vibration will be generated by machinery such as excavators, haulage vehicles, concrete saws, crushers, and other heavy equipment. Measures will be in place to monitor and reduce these disruptions.
