What we are doing

What we are doing
In order to carry out groundwater monitoring related to the construction of the new HS2 tunnels, it will be necessary to drill a borehole at the location shown on the map overleaf.

In order to carry out these works safely, on 12 January we will erect a drilling rig within the utilities compound on the playing field. Drilling the borehole should take around five days to complete. The borehole will then have a secure cover.

How these works might affect you
There will be some noisy drilling whilst we create the borehole.

The borehole will be in use for approximately five years so that we can carry out groundwater monitoring. There will be routine visits to carry out the monitoring using handheld equipment. This should take no more than twenty minutes each time.

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.
