Noise Management Plan Out of Hours Work – 9 September - 20 December 2024 BORR Southern Sections (31 & 32) – Sunday Works Program – Asphalt Sealing SWGA-31-143-00-PLN-003 28 August

Scope:

This plan involves laying asphalt seal materials in sections and where necessary, notifying residents near the planned work areas. These areas now have extensive noise walls, or works are in a cut which provides substantial protection from noise emission, or as is the case on Bussell Highway, any noise generated would be substantially masked by general traffic noise.

Detail:
SWGA has determined that Sunday work for key asphalt sealing will be necessary for the final four months of 2024 to ensure the highway opens on time and to minimise traffic delays and community disruption. Predominately Sunday work will be conducted in rural areas without significant disruption. Identified sensitive receivers have been provided and will be contacted by phone and letter drop.

Standard criteria considered:

• Reason for works being required after hours/ demonstrating that it was reasonably necessary for the work to be done out-of-hours
• Acknowledge AS 2436-2010 Guide to noise and vibration control on construction, demolition and maintenance sites
• Speak to the use of equipment being the quietest reasonably available
• Show that the occupiers of all premises at which noise received was likely to be above the assigned levels have been given notice of the proposed construction work at least 24 hours before it started
• Covers predictions of noise emissions
• Includes types and durations of activity likely to result in noise emissions above assigned noise levels
• Document control measures for noise emissions, including vibration
• Complaint response procedure
