- barge movements for materials and equipment deliveries
- noise and low levels of vibration associated with the use of equipment and machinery such as cranes, rock breakers, concrete pumps, excavators and trucks
- lighting associated with night works
- traffic control and signage to direct pedestrians, cyclists, scooter riders and motorists around work as required.
