What we are doing
Additional utility surveys on Park Royal Road West
We will be carrying out additional drainage surveys in your area. These surveys will help us to understand the condition of the drainage system in the area and how best to protect it during construction of the railway.
We will investigate the condition of the sewer system via a series of manhole covers using a camera and may need to flush the system if any blockages are found.
You may also notice some noise from the tanker jet wash which will be on standby should we need to clear any blockages. Your utility services will not be affected during these works.
Surveys will take place during the hours of 8am to 6pm from 17 to 21 January 2022. A map showing the location of these works can be found on the following page.
To ensure the safety of our workers and the public we will need to suspend three parking bays on Park Royal Road near lower park to gain access to the manhole covers as well as erecting safety barriers around the manholes and working area at various locations as shown on the map. Access to residential garages on Park Royal Road will be maintained.
We will also need to carry out additional ground investigations on Park Royal Road from mid-January 2022. We will provide further details once the works programme has been confirmed. Dates and activities mentioned in this notification may chance, we’ll keep you updated of any changes via post and at HS2.org.uk.
