What we are doing

What we are doing
In preparation for the start of tunnelling later this year, we will be carrying out surveys of the gas main located on Eastcote Lane bridge (see map) from 25 April to 13 May 2022. These surveys will provide us with information on the condition of the existing utility services and help us to decide how best to protect them.

In order to access the gas main, we will need to dig a trench. We will then drill into the gas main so that we can insert a special camera to carry out the survey. Following completion of the surveys, we will fill in the trench and reinstate the road surface.

How these surveys might affect you
Due to the location of the gas main within the road it will be necessary to close the bridge for the duration of the surveys. We will maintain pedestrian access across the bridge, by carrying out the surveys in two phases. Detail of dates and locations are shown on the maps overleaf.

Your gas supply will not be affected.

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
