Does the permit cover construction noise issues?

Permits to obstruct and/or close roads do not address noise. For further information on how noise is addressed, please visit the Imagine Vincent. 

The Traffic Management Plan (TMP) is a detailed technical document prepared by the contractor and reviewed by the City as part of the permit process.

It is not published as it is not a public-facing document and may contain commercially sensitive and operational information.

To support transparency, the City publishes approved Traffic Guidance Schemes (TGS), which show the on-ground traffic and pedestrian arrangements relevant to residents and road users.

The City assesses compliance against the full approved documentation and undertakes regular site inspections to ensure works are carried out safely and in accordance with permit conditions.

Temporary Use of Stuart Street Reserve

To support construction of the development, Willing Development has entered into a temporary licence agreement with the City for the use of approximately 317m² of Stuart Street Reserve.

Why the reserve is required

The development site is constrained and directly adjoins the reserve. The licence area is proposed to be used for the temporary storage of construction materials, plant and equipment during the construction period.

The reserve area cannot be occupied or used until all required approvals, permits and licence requirements have been met.

The licensed area will be enclosed by temporary fencing, with appropriate signage and safety measures in place.

Public access to the remainder of Stuart Street Reserve will be maintained. The temporary use of the reserve will remain subject to the conditions of the licence agreement and ongoing oversight by the City.

What happens to the reserve after construction?

At the completion of construction, the applicant will be required to:

  • Reinstate the licensed area.
  • Undertake landscaping works required by the development approval.
  • Deliver additional improvements required under the licence agreement.

 As part of the licence agreement, the applicant is required to prepare a landscape plan for the reinstatement and improvement of this section of Stuart Street Reserve. The proposed improvements include additional landscaping, beautification works and tree planting.

The City will review and approve the landscape plan and retain oversight of the works. This will ensure the area is reinstated and the agreed improvements are delivered to the City's satisfaction.
