What we are doing

Following the arrival of our new heavy lifter crane, on Wednesday 12 March, we will be lifting the jib section to the new heavy lifter crane.

The jib will be lifted by a mobile crane which is already on site. Due to the lift’s considerable size, in the interests of staff safety, this operation will take place at 6:00am.

During this time, residents may see flashing lights from vehicles entering and exiting site, hear radio communications, and notice crane engines operating within the site.

To help mitigate disturbance to the local community, operatives will use hand signals to communicate where possible and will be briefed on keeping noise levels to a minimum. Please see a map of the location of works on the link below.
