What we are doing
What we are doing
In order to carry out groundwater monitoring for the new HS2 tunnels, we need to drill a new borehole and fill in another at the two locations. You can see the locations on the pdf attachment. From Friday 2 to Monday 5 February, we will be working 24/7 to drill the new borehole We are doing this to avoid disrupting the operations of the businesses in the area.
We will erect noise reducing barriers around the area while we drill the borehole. Once completed, the borehole will have a secure cover. We will place barriers around the borehole to be filled which will take up to three hours to complete. The barrier around the borehole will remain in place until the subcontractor returns on the third day to check the work and it is then complete.
How these works might affect you
The borehole is over 90 metres away from nearby homes; however, it may be possible to hear some noise whilst drilling at night. We would like to apologise in advance for the disruption or inconvenience this may cause. Every effort is being taken to ensure that these works are carried out in the least impactful way. We will ensure that disruption is kept to a minimum.
