    Folks, I'm sure Brisbane is just dandy, but it's not the topic of this thread.

    It's perfectly reasonable to expect my needs to be taken into consideration and budgeted for in this scenario.
    Yes, it is. However, it's also reasonable for everyone else’s needs to be taken into consideration. When aggregated, it's likely that your needs are going to be heavily outweighed.

    These are all hypothetical scenarios but I would imagine that if it did go to a civil case then there's the chance of the defendant being liable for hotel costs and / or loss of earnings etc.
    Don't waste your time and money taking anyone to court - if the construction work is taking place during normal working hours, then it's extremely unlikely that your case will get anywhere. I would suggest you channel your efforts into contacting your local TD's with regard to the noise pollution legislation, although I don’t think your situation is really the sort that is being considered. But, you never know – maybe there are a lot of other people in your situation.

    I've heard so little about it since the announcement that I'd assumed that they'd forgotten all about it once the economy went blue and foetal.

    Google is your friend. That info/link I posted was not hard to find.

    7am is so early in a residential area for construction work to begin. Bulldozers and trucks have been ramming through our tiny streets for the past week shocking everyone into early waking. mostly it is upsetting to think that the people in the old people's sheltered accommodation are the ones being worse affected. Naturally city hall didn't and don't considered how this affects thei lives, some of these people are in their 90s and are now bombarded by huge noise levels all day every day
