Duration You may see us in this area for up to four years as we setup, carry out our construction work, then demobilise the site and rehabilitate it for future use. We will be building permanent infrastructure to support the operation of Beaches Link at Gore Hill Freeway, including motorway facilities and a ventilation outlet. The construction peak at this site will be when we are tunnelling and will be up to two years.

Hours of work We will be tunnelling up to 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Once we are tunnelling, the majority of the work will take place underground and activity on the surface will reduce. Based on our planned tunnelling rate and depth we expect the impact from tunnelling to be minimal for residents as we will only be excavating directly under each property for about one week, and will generally be quite deep. When tunnelling, our work will be as deep as about 42 metres (13 storeys) at Artarmon. The majority of the tunnelling work on the surface at this site takes place inside the acoustic shed, which manages the potential impacts of noise, dust and light spill. These sheds are closed at night to further reduce noise. There may be occasional deliveries and some light vehicle movements outside of standard construction hours. General site activities and spoil transport will only take place during standard construction hours. For any work outside the standard construction hours, the community will be notified in advance.

Traffic/vehicle Access into the site will be via Cleg Street and out of the site via movements Punch Street. An alternative heavy vehicle exit will be constructed to connect directly to the Gore Hill Freeway heading west to reduce heavy vehicles on local streets. At our construction peak, there will be around 370 heavy vehicle movements and 580 light vehicle movements per day (a vehicle travelling in and out of the site is counted as two movements). The combined activity for all Artarmon temporary sites will increase traffic in the area by 7.5 per cent during peak construction. Overall, this is a small increase to current traffic volumes.

Duration You may see us in this area for about four years as we setup, carry out our construction work, then demobilise the site and rehabilitate it for future use. We will be building permanent infrastructure to support the operation of Beaches Link at the Gore Hill Freeway, including motorway facilities and a ventilation outlet. The construction peak at this site will be when we are tunnelling and carrying out Gore Hill Freeway surface works and will be up to three years in duration.

Hours of work Our general site activities including most surface work and building the motorway control centre and tunnel support facilities will be carried out during standard construction hours. There will be some activities, such as complex surface work and utility adjustments which occur outside of standard construction hours due to site access restrictions, traffic staging and safety requirements. For any work outside the standard construction hours, the community will be notified in advance.

Traffic/vehicle Access to site will be via Dickson Avenue. movements At our construction peak, there will be around 90 heavy vehicle movements and 500 light vehicle movements per day (a vehicle travelling in and out of the site is counted as two movements). The combined activity for all Artarmon temporary sites will increase traffic in the area by 7.5 per cent during peak construction. Overall, this is a small increase to current traffic volumes.
