What we are doing

To help build the new HS2 Old Oak Common railway station, an existing sewer and utility supplies need to be moved. Parts of these services will be diverted through a section of Wormwood Scrubs.

HS2 have been working closely with both London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham (LBHF) and Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) on developing the access route for the sewer diversion work. LBHF have now submitted their planning application to OPDC for the alternative access via Old Oak Common Lane. While a decision on the access route is pending, LBHF have agreed we can temporarily access the Scrubs to prepare the site including in the HS2 Act via the existing maintenance access route on Braybrook Street. This work will begin 15 February 2021 and continue for approximately one month.
