UK Power Networks substation works on Great Central Avenue, South Ruislip

What we are doing

What we are doing

We are progressing with our utility protection and strengthening works within this scheme, and now need to update you on the next area of works within the UKPN area on Great Central Avenue.

From 6 March to 31 July 2023, we will be carrying out works on Great Central Avenue to facilitate our lining works. The works will be carried out in a programmed sequence, which involves:

• Setting up a site compound at the UKPN substation on Great Central Avenue to segregate our work areas
• Excavation of pit to access the sewer at this location
• Installing sewer lining
• Reinstatement and demobilisation of each site.

How these works might affect you
We will be using an excavation vacuum to remove the soil during these works, and we anticipate that this will create some noise. However, we will be using noise reducing barriers to minimise disruption and will limit its use as you as much as possible.

Temporary traffic management of a footpath closure will be in place at the junction of Cedar Avenue and Great Central Avenue from 6 March to 31 July 2023, to carry out the site compound set up within UKPN substation. This will include a lane closure in the opening and closing week to allow us to set-up, and de-mobilising the site entrance and track matting into the compound area.

There will be a temporary 24-hour over pumping system to transfer water and control the sewage flow to ensure that your utility services are uninterrupted during construction.

We will set up a site compound within Prior Farm’s fields and install fencing to segregate our work area.
