What we are doing

We wrote to you in May to update you on the construction of the ventilation shaft at our South Ruislip site.

We wanted to update you on our progress and let you know that we have now completed the excavation of the main shaft.

From 31October to 5 November 2022, we will continue our works by preparing the top of the satellite shaft to install a capping beam of concrete across the top of the piles.

We will be excavating around the top of the piles and breaking out the top level of concrete. This capping beam preparation work will occur during core hours, Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm and Saturdays 8am to 1pm.

How the work might affect you

You may experience a period of increased construction noise during this period. Noise and vibration monitoring will be in place throughout these works. We will use water sprays to reduce dust generated by construction activities.

We would like to apologise in advance for any disruption or inconvenience this may cause. Every effort is being taken to ensure that these works are carried out in the least impactful way. We will ensure that disruption is kept to a minimum.
