What we are doing

Works to west retaining wall – autumn 2023 to summer 2024

We are currently constructing a large retaining wall in front of Regent’s Park Estate. This wall, which extends from Granby Terrace to Hampstead Road, will form the side of the new HS2 railway cutting.

From October 2023 we were working in sections between Cartmel towards Coniston, excavating a deep trench, using a high powered water blaster to roughen the top of the concrete piles and building the concrete slabs. This works to continue until summer 2024. Please see the link to September 2023 notice ‘Works next to Coniston and Cartmel – October 2023 to June 2024‘ below.

Extended hours working near Coniston and Cartmel – 11 June 2024

As part of retaining wall construction, we need to complete a large concrete pour. We plan to complete this pour on Tuesday 11 June. The works are weather
dependent, and we will consider other days that week or the following week if necessary.

Once we begin pouring concrete for a slab, we must continue until it is finished. We will prepare our working area the day before the large pour so we can begin pouring concrete at 7am on the day. We will not undertake any noisy works until after 8am and we plan to finish by 6pm, however if there are any delays, we may finish later than this.

We will have approximately 70 wagons delivering concrete to our site. To reduce the impact of this, concrete wagons will access the worksite through our site gate on Hampstead Road. You may notice periods of noise from the concrete pour and additional lorries throughout the day. We are sorry for any disruption this work might cause.
