What we are doing
We will be continuing with our preparation for permanent construction works on our site near Cappers Lane until March 2022. This work involves piling work which is the process of installing foundations for future structures. To install the piles, we will be using a piling machine to drill a vertical hole deep into the ground. We will then lower the reinforced steel into the hole using a crane, before filling the hole with concrete and finally capping them with a beam.
This will require two overnight closures of the West Coast Main Line and will be completed with hand tools and survey equipment. These closures will take place overnight on the following dates: –
• Saturday 15 January 2022 from 10:30pm until 9:00am Sunday 16 January 2022.
• Saturday 12 February 2022 from 10:30 pm until 9:00am Sunday 13 February 2022.
