If a CNP is
issued for construction work with unavoidable constraints on working
hours (e.g. road pavement work) even though the noise could not
meet the limit, EPD would require the employment of the quietest
practicable construction method. Please click here

for Road Opening Works during Non-Sociable Hours" and "Guidelines
on the Application of Some Commonly Used Quiet Equipment and Techniques
for Road Pavement Works". Please also click here
