What we are doing
We are making good progress in the area from Twyford to Greatworth. This newsletter provides an update on progress in the area as well as more information on work that will be taking place over the next six months.
You can expect to see the following works including:
• utility survey and diversion works (including electricity, water and sewage);
• excavation and movement of earthworks;
• localised vegetation clearance;
• piling works for the foundation of our main structures;
• watercourse management;
• continued set up of compounds; and
• delivery of precast components for our viaducts and bridges.
In this update you will also find information on our construction progress and overviews for the Westbury Viaduct, footbridges and road bridges and our utility works along the A4421 and A421.
We are also delighted to share updates on our social value projects, volunteering and ecology work between Twyford and Greatworth. This includes our partnership with the British Black Bee Conservation Project with the first beehives being installed at one of our sites in Halse Copse this October as well as a short update on our Barn Owl mitigation progress.
