What we are doing
What we are doing
From 24 October 2022 to 22 May 2023, we will be carrying out the main sewer protection works, relining the foul and surface sewer network between Victoria Road and Great Central Avenue. The overall scheme will be completed in three phases. We will be at the below locations at each phase:
Phase one – at the Shurgard rear storage units on Victoria Road
Phase two – UK Power Networks substation on Great Central Avenue
Phase three – Priors Farm fields
The works will involve:
• Setting up a site compound at each location to segregate our
work areas
• Installing a temporary haul road in Priors Farm
• Installing over 1km of overpumping pipework
• Vegetation removal to facilitate the installation of a temporary
access bridge to be accessed from the farmers’ fields and
within the railway embankment behind Shurgard
• Excavation of pits to access the sewer in each location
• Installing sewer lining
• Reinstatement and demobilisation of each site.
We would like to apologise in advance for any disruption or inconvenience this may cause. Every effort is being taken to ensure that these works are carried out in the least impactful way. We will ensure that disruption is kept to a minimum.
How these works might affect you
We will be using an excavation vacuum to remove the soil during these works, and we anticipate that this will create some noise. However, we will be using noise reducing barriers to minimise disruption and will limit its use as you as much as possible.
Temporary traffic management of a footpath closure will be in place at the junction of Cedar Avenue and Great Central Avenue from 29 November 2022 to 15 May 2023, to carry out the site compound set up within UK Power Networks substation. This will include a lane closure in the opening and closing week to allow us to set-up and de-mobilising the site entrance and track matting into the compound area.
There will be a temporary 24-hour over pumping system to transfer water and control the sewage flow to ensure that your utility services are uninterrupted during construction.
We will set up a site compound within Prior Farm’s fields and install fencing to segregate our work area. See map below for the location of our works and welfare unit.
