What we are doing
We will be carrying out ground investigation surveys in the local area from October 2021 until June 2022. These surveys will be carried out within or close to our sites in the Nechells ward. This will include areas of land on or near the following roads:
• Duddeston Mill Road
• Inkerman Street
• Alma Crescent
• Dollman Street
• Erskine Street
• Viaduct Street
• St James Place
These surveys will help us to understand more about the ground conditions where we want to build the new railway. The surveys will involve taking soil samples and boring trial holes in different locations. To complete our survey works we will transport drilling rigs to site by trailer. Drilling rigs will then be positioned on site and our workforce will travel to site every day by a 4×4 vehicle.
