Notice of earth works – Gilson Drive

What we are doing

The work we will be completing

In December we notified about our plans to utilise up to 12 HGV movements a day on Gilson Drive in December and January. Up until now these works have been delayed due to haul road works not being complete in areas to the south of Gilson Road.

We have notified about traffic management from 24 January through to the start of February to create the haul road and the access points on the Gilson Road and Gilson Drive. Once these works are complete our movements will start on Gilson Drive. Initially our works will involve the delivery of plant and equipment to set up our haul roads. Once these are established, we will begin to deliver large quantities of material. We will be able to utilise up to 126 movements a day in each direction.

Traffic marshals will be in place either side of the bridge to ensure safe passage. There will be a 15mph speed limit on our haul roads and we will advise and sign our construction traffic to stay within this limit on Gilson Drive with residents having right of way. A road sweeper and a wheel wash will be on site to manage mud in the area.

BBV will ensure monitoring of noise and vibration is in line with appropriate levels required. We have also delivered letters regarding defect surveys to properties on Gilson Drive and are awaiting responses to conduct these.
