"Residents say construction noise continues through the summer break."
Construction noise in Hamad Town has prompted calls for stricter action against contractors accused of disturbing residents, including starting work as early as 4 am.
Northern Municipal Council member Abdulla Al Qubaisi urged the Ministry of Labour and the Northern Municipality to increase inspections of construction sites in Block 1209 following resident complaints.
Al Qubaisi said some contractors violate the midday outdoor work ban, which runs from noon to 4 pm under Ministerial Resolution No. 5 of 2026, while others start work in the early hours to avoid the restriction.
He said early-morning construction and the use of heavy equipment violate regulations protecting public rest in residential areas, disrupting residents’ sleep and daily lives.
Al Qubaisi called for immediate coordination between the Ministry of Labour and the municipality to address the violations and restore peace to the area.
