Kamay Ferry Wharves – proposal to extend work hours on Saturdays
We are committed to building the Kamay Ferry Wharves safely and as efficiently as possible so that we limit impacts to the community. Our contract partner, McConnell Dowell, is proposing to extend Saturday work hours at both sites so that we can maximise our workers’ time and equipment. This will allow us to complete some of our work activities faster and minimise overall disruption to the community.
While we are extending work hours, we will ensure that the noisiest piling work continues to stop at 1pm.
We are asking residents and businesses nearest to the wharf construction at La Perouse and Kurnell for their agreement to extend our regular working hours on Saturday from 1pm to finishing at 6pm:
- Current work hours: Saturday from 8am to 1pm
- Proposed extended hours: Saturday from 8am to 6pm.
We would like to implement these additional working hours from Saturday 11 November 2023 for a period of approximately eight months. Please note that we wouldn’t work these extended Saturday hours over the holiday period between 23 December 2023 and 7 January 2024.
During the extended hours we would carry out our normal work activities, except for the noisier impact piling which would continue to stop at 1pm. In general, we anticipate the noise level would remain the same as current weekday levels or be reduced. There will be no additional vehicle or truck movements during our extended work hours. Workers will park inside the construction site and not on Anzac Parade.
This online form is designed to collect your feedback on our proposal. One response can be provided per property/residence. Please provide your response by 5pm Friday 20 October.
