What to expect during the works
During this work there is potential for noise, site lighting and vibration, but we will aim to keep disruption as minimal as practically possible and within the terms agreed with North Tyneside Council. We have continuous noise monitoring equipment installed onsite to capture in real-time the noise levels being generated.
We understand that working near your homes and working at weekends and overnight is far from ideal, and we apologise in advance for any disruption these works may cause. The continuous access to the track for longer periods of time enables us to complete this essential phase of works as quickly as possible.
