What we are doing

Update: Weekend work January 2026 until late February 2026  – Weekday working from 8am until 10pm Monday 23 February until Friday 27 February

We are continuing to divert critical and large parts of the utility network under Old Oak Common Lane. We will be carrying out work on the recently opened northern realigned section on Oak Common Lane. We will be excavating utilities and making gas connections.

Cadent gas enabling works
We will be excavating and making gas connections on the southbound lane of the recently opened northern realignment on Old Oak Common Lane. Due to scheduling challenges, we need to work on Sunday 22 February 8am until 5pm, Monday 23 February until Friday 27 February from 8am until 10pm, and Saturday 28 February 8am until 5pm.

Due to the complex scope and volume of work, we need to continue our extended working hours. We will use as many mitigations as possible to reduce disruption.

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.
