What we are doing
What we are doing
Under our current tunnelling programme, the first of our tunnel boring machines (TBMs) will reach the Northolt area by 10 March, and the second TBM due to arrive by 25 March. In advance of this time, we need to install ground monitoring equipment and fill in two boreholes in the open space behind Wilsmere Drive.
Small survey studs will be hammered into the ground between the pavement and the kerb which will only take a short while and remain in place for approximately two years.
A small team of operatives will be working with a portable concrete batcher, pump and concrete mix in the borehole locations and will place barriers around each. It may take up to three hours to fill each borehole. The barriers will remain in place until the subcontractor returns on the third day to ensure that the hole has been filled in correctly.
