    Fairly sure construction can continue as normal even outside the 5km radius.

    Construction is essential I believe so I think you are ok.

    Need to ensure you maintain your distance from people and mask up when in someone’s house. To protect you and them.

    Unless the person is vulnerable masks are recommended when your will be within 2m of someone for 15 mins, or in the same room for 2 hours. You'd be as well off putting the person out of the room while you work, and airing well before and after.

    Mssks are useful, but they aren't magic barriers that remove the need to distance.
