What we are doing
To allow for the construction of the new railway and to continue to ensure a safe and reliable gas supply, Cadent is moving an underground gas pipeline near Brancote, east of Stafford, at the start of 2023. We will keep people up to date as our works progress.
What are we doing?
We have been carrying out surveys on land off Hanyards Lane, to understand more about the land we’ll be working in.
We now need to carry out some additional surveys on land south of Hanyards Lane, and will be starting this work from 11 April 2022.
The work will setting up a small welfare cabin, then drilling boreholes and digging small pits so we can take samples of the ground to analyse. We expect this work to take around three weeks to complete.
