Applying for an after-hours building work (noise) permit
Legally, building work and deliveries that make an audible noise must only take place between 6:30am and 6:30pm Monday to Saturday. No work is allowed on Sundays and public holidays.
We may issue an after-hours building work (noise) exemption permit if:
- works cannot be completed during standard work hours
- works cause a danger to public safety during standard work hours
- the work zone affects public infrastructure, for example, light rail
- works would cause unacceptable traffic impact if done within standard work hours.
