What we are doing
What we are doing
To support the building of the railway, we need to construct compounds along the route including one at Park Lane.
Construction update
LM are currently carrying out works in the area including constructing a new roundabout on the A452 and have a construction compound off Park Lane, please see map on downloadable notification. BBV started constructing their main compound in Park Lane in mid-June 2020, which will take up to eight months to complete and include office space, welfare facilities for site workers and areas to store materials.
The work started the week beginning 15th June 2020 with Portacabins being delivered to the current compound and construction started the week beginning 22nd June 2020. Once complete we will start the main civils construction work.
What are the traffic routes for this location?
The compound is located off Park Lane and construction traffic access the compound off the existing road (Park Lane). Compound construction began with Portacabins being delivered to the BBV compound, followed by delivery of materials to carry out essential utility works in order to supply water, electricity and telecommunications to the compound, resurface an area of land within the compound to construct a staff car park, finally followed by the construction and connection of the offices.
Work Force Travel Plans
Once the compound is completed in early 2021, we will produce an effective work force travel plan helping us to minimise our impact on the local communities, environment, road network.
