Notice of Repairs to Gabion Basket at the A47 Heartlands Bridge site.

What we are doing

As we continue to build the new HS2 route. We will be carrying out construction works to repair Gabion Baskets during the night. The Gabion Baskets, act as a foundation to the fence line that separates Network Rail and HS2 land. These elements were previously damaged during the A47 Heartlands demolition works.

We will be using heavy machinery and equipment to complete the repairs to the gabion baskets. As we carry out these works, we will do all that is reasonably practicable to minimise noise levels and ensure that we reduce our impact to residents.

These works will take place overnight over 2 weekends between 9.00pm and 4.00am on the following dates; Saturday 17 February, Sunday 18 February, Monday 19 February, Saturday 24 February, Sunday 25 February and Monday 26 February.

Our workforce can be on site up to 1 hour before work begins to set up the site and again afterwards to take down our work equipment.

Those living and working close to the works can expect to hear some noise during the construction process. To minimise disruption to traffic flow, the repair work will be conducted during the night when traffic volume is lower. Our teams will work diligently to ensure the repairs are completed efficiently and effectively.

Residents are advised to expect some noise during the works.

Access to the works will be gained directly from within our site boundary. There will be minimum traffic disruption. The teams will adhere to strict safety processes, traffic management measures will be implemented to ensure the smooth flow of vehicles.
