Ground Investigations on Delancey Street, Parkway and Gloucester Avenue / Oval Road

What we are doing

We are continuing to investigate ways to reduce impacts as our plans progress. We are continuing surveys and investigations in the area to inform the design of works to strengthen and divert services beneath Parkway before we begin tunnelling in late-2023.

From 18 July to late August, we will carry out surveys to assess the structure of Parkway bridge and inform the design of our works.

We will carry out four trial pits on Delancey Street, Parkway and Gloucester Avenue / Oval Road. We will carry out one trial pit after another, with each pit expected to take about a week to complete.

Trail pit 1 – Delancey Street

Trial pit within the footway, opposite Solstice Point (86 Delancey Street). We will require a lane and footway closure to carry out these works. We will provide a pedestrian walkway past our working area.

Trial pit 2 – Delancey Street

Trial pit within the carriageway, in front of 84 Delancey Street. We will require a lane narrowing and parking bay suspensions in front of 76 to 84 Delancey Street, to make way for these works.

Trail pit 3 – Parkway

Trial pit within the carriageway, in the middle of Parkway junction. We will require lane closures on Parkway and Delancey Street. Traffic travelling straight across the junction from Delancey Street to Gloucester Avenue will be diverted via Parkway, Albert Terrace, and Regent’s Park Road. A diversion for cyclists will also be signposted.

Trial pit 4 – Gloucester Avenue / Oval Road

Trial pit within the footway on the corner of Gloucester Avenue and Oval Road. We will require a footway closure and lane narrowing past our working area. Access to pedestrian crossings will be maintained.
