We live off Triangle Rd and a fair way from the interchange, however the constant thumping (like pile driving) woke us up at aound 2 am this morning and kept us awake. For those who live on Makora Rd and near the overbridge on Royal Rd...did NZTA or the contractors do a mailbox drop prior to last night advising of the possible noise/disruption? Also, did anyone ring NZTA or Auckland Council to complain and, if so, what response did you get?
