The main road thats about a mile away from my road is being resurfaced. These bar stewards have decided to use my road as a base camp for their heavy machinery. Started messing at 7 am on a bloody sunday  |

Bloody hell i'm amazed they're out at that time. Usually you see them sat in said machinery doing sweet FA apart from smoking and drinking out of a thermos!  |

"There are actually rules on when heavy work can be done in the weekends, can't remember what the timings are off the top of my head. Will google. "
Hmmmm seems it's down to local councils who decide what is reasonable times etc. |

Trouble with resurfacing a main road is you do it duribg the week and cause traffic chaos or you do it on a weekend and overnight and puss off the locals.
I suspect the OP would also be complainin if traffic was gridlocked Monday morning and theor commute took hours longer than normal.
Can't win either way |

I actually feel for these people doing this sort of work
Do it mid week - you're disrupting people travelling
Do it out of hours - you're disturbing people while they're at home
Do it on a weekend - you're disturbing people's weekend
Don't do it - you're a twat for not doing it

"They have to put the stuff somewhere. Some folk just love to complain."
A post exactly like this came up on a local Facebook group and when questioned, the ones complaint couldn't actually come up with an answer that would be a suitable time.
Unfortunately early on a weekend is going to cause the least disruption. It's not like a motorway where they can shut entire sections all night |
