What we are doing
Extension of duration of works
Due to design changes that have taken place in the Old Oak Common station site, the length of time the sewer diversion work needs to be carried out within the Stamford Brook Sewer (SBS) site on Wormwood Scrubs will have to be extended for a further six months.
The SBS diversion was due to be completed in August 2022, however the work is now expected to continue for a further six months until late February 2023, which means the site access route from Old Oak Common Lane to the SBS site will now be in use for an additional six months. We have worked with London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (LBHF) and the Old Oak & Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) to extend the temporary planning permission for the access route from 18 months to 24 months.
After this work has been completed the SBS site, and the access road leading to it, will be reinstated, and handed back to LBHF.
The Undertrack Crossing (UTX) site in the north-west corner of Wormwood Scrubs will remain in place while we divert the utilities in this area. Vehicles will continue to access this site via Old Oak Common Lane while the utility diversion work continues.
