In many heritage projects, environmental sensitivity goes hand-in-hand with cultural responsibility. Sites are often located in areas of ecological value or within active public spaces. Polaris Marine Group takes a proactive approach to environmental and community stewardship, maintaining clean, safe worksites and coordinating works to reduce disruption. We implement sediment control, vibration monitoring, and noise reduction measures throughout all heritage-related works. Where marine fauna are present, such as seagrasses, fish nurseries, or nesting birds, we adjust timing and methodology to avoid harm. Our team ensures every project aligns with environmental legislation and any specific conditions of heritage consents. We also understand the importance of community connection to heritage places. Our team is experienced in working within public parks, foreshore paths, ferry terminals, and precincts with high pedestrian traffic. We communicate clearly with residents and local groups, providing updates, minimising impacts, and preserving access wherever possible.
