If you read the "Contractor Conformity" document on the city public
works website, you'll see that it mandates both vibration and rat
control, in addition to many other details.  So nearby neighbors might
want to bring their problems of things falling off of shelves to the
attention of the city (public works, city councilperson).

The document says:

"Contractor will at all times monitor construction vibrations with two
seismographs.  If vibrations exceed specification levels, Contractor
must alter method of construction."

"Public Works, Solid Waste, Housing, Health and the Mayor's Office of
Neighborhoods [have] developed and placed in effect a rat baiting and
control program in the affected communities.  In addition, the City has
developed a public educational outreach program for Rodent Control."

You neighbors should have heard about these things.  You might want to
hold the city and the contractors to their agreement.
