What we are doing
In Mid-December we will begin to test our Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs) prior to tunnelling the Northolt Tunnel East, from the Victoria Road Crossover Box (VRCB) to Greenpark Way in Greenford.
You may have noticed us lifting the TBMs into place at our VRCB site. This is in preparation for them to be launched from early January 2024. The TBMs they will need to be tested during December 2023 and January 2024 before launching.
We do not expect residents to be impacted by this work.
