What we are doing

Extended working hours to install artwork on the conveyor crossing

We wrote to you recently about works during the first week of November to install a conveyor crossing over Grand Union Canal between our Atlas Road and Willesden Euroterminal sites.  To install the conveyor crossing safely, the installation will take place during overnight canal and towpath closures. You can view our previous notification about these works via the HS2 in your area map here.

As you may be aware, we are installing artwork on the conveyor crossing over Grand Union Canal, created by local artist David Samuel from RareKind at Excelsior Studios. You can see an indicative visualisation of the artwork and conveyor crossing in the attachment.

The artwork is currently being installed on the conveyor crossing ahead of works next week to lift the crossing into place. Due to unforeseen circumstances, our team will continue works 24/7 to install the artwork by early next week. Works to install the artwork will take place within our Willesden Euroterminal site using handheld tools. These works should not cause any disruption to you.
