What we are doing

We previously wrote to you about the ongoing bridge works, that are needed for Old Oak Common Lane to be widened and lowered. This will enable double decker buses to travel along the road where they have not formally been able to. You can read the previous notification here: Notice of Upcoming Bridge Works – HS2

We will continue to carry out works near the Central Line from Sunday 6 August. The works will take place 8pm and 5am, due to the proximity to moving trains.

We have committed to using a modern method of piling which involves drilling and concreting at the same time.  This creates less noise and vibration.
We will place sensors around the site to monitor noise and these will be triggered if the noise levels become too high and we will stop works.

Lighting will be facing away from residents to minimise light disturbance.
