What we are doing
As the project progresses, it is necessary to remove vegetation to enable future works to continue and to allow access to areas of the site.
From September, we will be completing remaining vegetation clearance works and further Ground Investigation (GI) work adjacent to the existing Princes Risborough to Aylesbury (PRA) railway.
For reasons of safety, we can only work when there are no trains running on the line, therefore these works will take place overnight. To help reduce disruption to the community, vehicles and plant machinery will be fitted with effective exhaust silencers where possible.
We expect the site clearance along the PRA railway to take place overnight on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 September.
Our ground investigation works will commence in October and also take place overnight.
We expect to continue our ground investigation works overnight on Saturday 27th November through to Thursday 2nd December. We are hoping to complete these works during the specified hours, however the timing of these works may differ due to ground conditions
and other effecting factors.
