What we are doing

Cadent needs to carry out survey work within the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) complex on 2 December 2024. This is to help Cadent plan the movement of its pipeline and understand more about the land it could be working on.

The work, which will take around one week, will involve drilling boreholes and digging small pits, so Cadent can take samples of the ground to analyse. Work will take place within the NEC complex only. Please note, there will be no on-site lodging.

Cadent expects that the work will be completed by mid-December 2024.

How this will affect you

Works are due to take place in land to the West of the E5 car park area and will require construction vehicles accessing the area from Pendigo Way, with signs in place to make people aware.
Standard construction vehicles and equipment will be used, and all work will take place inside usual working hours.

All activity will be low-level, and we do not anticipate any additional noise or disruption for visitors to the NEC. There shouldn’t be any disruption to your utilities during our works. We will keep people up to date as our work progresses.
