Update: utility surveys in your local area

What we are doing

Update on Ground investigations in your area
We recently wrote to you in July 2022 about carrying out a series of ground investigations on West Gate Road.

The works have now been extended and we will be carrying out additional utility surveys until 19 August 2022 between 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday and 8am to 1pm, Saturdays. We will use noise reducing barriers where possible to help minimise any noise disruption to the local community, working as efficiently as possible whilst keeping our work areas safe and tidy.

The ground investigations will consist of digging a temporary trench to confirm the location of utilities under the surface of the footpath. The surveys will help us to understand and aid the design of the new railway and the best ways to protect or divert any utilities during construction.

How this might affect you
To ensure the safety of the public and our staff, temporary changes will remain in place on West Gate during these works. A single lane and footpath closures will be in place with two-way traffic lights and temporary pedestrian crossings to help traffic and pedestrian flow. Parking on West Gate within our work area will be temporarily suspended during these works.
