What we are doing
What we are doing
Due to the future planned HS2 railway, the British Pipeline Association has been asked to divert an existing pipeline in the Fradley area.
In preparation for these diversion works, from January to September 2022, we will be carrying out initial site surveys and assessments, including ecological, topographical, archaeological, and ground investigation. The work includes measuring ground levels, testing soil samples and searching for buried utility services. Most of these assessments will be carried out in the period from January to April, with follow up surveys up to the end of September.
How will this affect me?
Works will take place North-West of Fradley, mostly within rural fields. For all the activity working hours will be 8.00am to 6pm Monday to Friday. As the works are largely within rural fields there should be minimal disruption to the local community, with a slight increase in construction traffic.
