How the work may affect you
Vehicle access to private hangers within the construction area may be restricted at times while the works are happening. This will be communicated by Owen Stewart, the Airfield Manager as the work progresses.
Traffic impacts
There will be traffic impacts while the work is carried out. Traffic may be directed onto the adjacent taxi-way where appropriate to do so. Otherwise, please take care navigating the cones and signs when they are set up and please follow directions of staff on site.
General impacts
Essential services
There will be no planned disruption to your water, wastewater, telephone or power services.

All work will be undertaken Monday to Friday between 7am and 6pm.
Weather

Noise and dirt
Road work is a noisy, dirty business — but please bear with us. We will be doing all we can to minimise the impact on your home/business. Your cooperation and patience will help us get the job done as quickly as possible. All work will be carried out between the stated hours and over week days only to help minimise the impact on the community.
Easy does it
Bitumen, concrete and other road repair materials require a bit of care after they are applied. Please treat all new surfaces with extra care following the completion of this project.
Thank you for your patience while we complete this work. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
