What we are doing
To allow for the construction of the new railway and to continue to ensure a safe and reliable gas supply, Cadent will be moving an underground gas pipeline off Wood End Lane, north of Curborough. We expect to complete all our work by the end of 2021.
We have finished preparation activities and have left the area so that other HS2 works can progress. We will be returning to start site set-up and main work to move the pipeline on 26 April 2021.
The works involve:
• Setting up a temporary works compound on land north of Wood End Lane (see map overleaf).
• Installing fencing around our working area.
• Digging a trench for the new pipeline.
• Welding the pipe together then installing it in the trench.
• Connecting and testing the new pipe.
