Review of Environmental Factors Addendum

The work is subject to a Review of Environmental Factors (REF). The Addendum includes a detailed Noise and Vibration report that predicts the project's possible impacts. It does this by measuring current noise levels at certain locations and considering typical construction activities, including specific machinery to be used, to come up with a worst-case scenario for the local community.

The addendum considers project mitigation measures such as temporary noise barriers that will reduce noise while the works are underway. This helps us predict which residents and businesses will be most impacted at various project stages.

The contractor will monitor compliance with the recommended noise and vibration levels throughout the project to ensure they do not exceed allowable levels. We will speak to the community before and throughout the project, to ensure we address any specific concerns.
