What we are doing

We wrote to you in December 2024 to let you know that we would be working extended hours at the South Ruislip Vent Shaft site to ensure a seamless transition from the completion of the shaft to the tunnel connection.

The 24-hour works will continue until Friday 14 March 2025 to align with the progress of the Tunnel Boring Machine.

Our working hours are as follows:

  • Ongoing until Friday 31 January 2025: 24 hours a day Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm on Saturdays
  • Saturday 1 February to Friday 14 March 2025: 24 hours a day, seven days a week

We will minimise the noisier works at night, and we’ll use noise reducing barriers around the construction machinery where possible. Noise and vibration levels will be continually monitored.
