The  Code of Practice has been prepared to help developers and their contractors ensure that they undertake their works in the most considerate manner, in order to reduce the impact of the work on the local communities.

The document has been prepared by the Environmental Protection Department and will be attached to relevant planning approvals and building control applications.

The purpose of this code of practice is to ensure that disturbances due to noise, vibration, dust & smoke arising from demolition and construction works on all building sites, including the public highway, are kept to an acceptable level without the imposition or unduly onerous restrictions on contractors. Adhering to this code will demonstrate a positive attitude and commitment towards minimising environmental disturbance to local residents.
