A Brisbane resident has created a petition, calling for early morning construction work start time of 6:30am to be made later in the morning.
Woolloongabba resident Leah Govorko said that construction noise can be too loud, and that these high noise levels affect sleep, concentration, mental and physical health among residents and workers.
Deputy chief-executive of Master Builders Paul Bidwell said if the start times were pushed back, project completion dates would increase, as would costs and impacts on residents as the project would take a longer time.
