What we are doing

We need to continue to install ducting just inside the main entrance to the Old Oak Common station site. These utilities provide services, such as gas and water, that need to be diverted. This is in preparation for tunnelling into Old Oak Common Station.

This work involves breaking the concrete, excavating trenches, laying ducting, re-filling the trenches and then relaying the road surface.

To help minimise disturbance to the local community, we will not break concrete before 9am. We’ll also limit concrete breaking to hourly periods. There will be noise barriers around the work area, and our team will carefully handle tools and equipment.

HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area.
