What we are doing

Works are continuing at the North Portal in preparation to receive the ALIGN JV’s tunnel boring machine in 2024. EKFB Earthworks are progressing in the area and are moving from Rocky Lane towards the location of the Chiltern North Portal.

We wrote to you earlier this year to advise you of the construction of the new bat house at Park Hill. Work concluded ahead of the bat maternity season with the structure completed. We also undertook roof tile removal on some buildings that are identified for subsequent demolition.

What does the work involve?

The bat house has been constructed within a pre identified and segregated area within the Park Hill habitat mitigation site. Access to the work site is via the HS2 internal access road directly from the A413.

Upon conclusion of the bat maternity season some finishing works, including cladding and local landscaping works are required.
