Social Impacts Response

Noise impacts have been considered for truck traffic and for all aspects of on-site activity and are well within zoned and legislated thresholds.  Greycoat continues to work with its truck vehicle providers to keep equipment maintained to minimize truck noise.  No truck deliveries are made after 6 PM or before 6 AM.

A detailed traffic study was prepared by MTL Consultants when the pit was opened in 2004, with updates in 2010.  See study attached. Greycoat has developed a bike and buggy bypass route around the gravel pit and as an alternative to the truck arterial road #41.
