Council only approves work outside standard construction hours in extreme circumstances, such as overnight shop fit-outs or where demolition or erection of structures such as cranes or hoardings may be a risk to public safety during daylight hours. 

Please note, we are not the only authority who can approve out of hours works, and there may be additional approved works we are not aware of (for emergencies, water works etc).

Current out of hours works can be viewed on the map below:

 

Council has a management plan for out of hours works which provides additional guidance.

  • Monday to Friday - 7am to 5pm
  • Saturday - 8am to 1pm
  • Sunday and Public Holidays - no work is permitted

Standard demolition and excavation hours

  • Monday to Friday only, between 8am and 5pm
