What we are doing

At Coney Greave Farm to the south of A53, we will create ecological mitigation ponds surrounded by grassland habitat creation. Before we start to construct the ponds, we need to excavate some archaeological trial trenches. These are to help us understand if there are any archaeological features or natural geological deposits, that we need to be aware of before we start any other work.

We will need to install temporary traffic lights in order to manage the safe movement of the equipment and machinery on and off site.

NOTE: Due to unforeseen circumstances, the temporary lights will now be in place during the day from 9am to 5pm from 16 May to 20 May not from 9 May and 13 May.
