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 is moving an underground gas pipeline near Common Lane, south of King’s Bromley. We expect all work to be completed by September 2022.
Since February, Cadent has been carrying out some preparation activities on land south of Common Lane. Cadent will be starting main work to move the pipeline on 19 April 2022.
What are we doing?
Cadent will be using the temporary works compound and site access we have created off Common Lane, south of King’s Bromley, to carry out the diversion. Work will involve:
• Digging a trench for the new pipeline off Common Lane
• Welding the pipe together then installing it in the trench
• Connecting and testing the new pipe
Construction vehicles will be travelling up the A515 and on to Common Lane to reach our working area. They will not be travelling through King’s Bromley.
There will be 24-hour security on site so we can maintain a safe working environment. Please note, there will be no on-site lodging.
Update Sep ’22: Please note that this work is now complete. Cadent’s temporary works compound and site access off Common Lane will remain as they will be used by other HS2 works in the future.
