Construction impacts are carefully planned and managed to minimise disruption to local communities and the environment.
Before construction begins, a Construction Environmental Management Plan is put in place. This sets clear controls for dust, traffic and noise.
Dust is managed through measures such as watering roads, covering loads and limiting vehicle speeds on unsealed surfaces. Traffic impacts are reduced by planning delivery routes and times, upgrading roads where needed, and coordinating with councils and emergency services.
Construction noise is managed by restricting work to approved hours, maintaining equipment, and monitoring noise levels to meet regulatory limits. Nearby residents are kept informed about higher‑impact activities in advance.
These measures are monitored throughout construction, and adjustments are made if issues arise, helping ensure impacts are temporary, well‑managed and compliant with approval conditions.
