What we are doing

Vegetation clearance works next to Grand Union Canal

During autumn 2021, we are planning to install a conveyor crossing over the Grand Union Canal. This will be part of the conveyor system in Old Oak and Park Royal to move excavated materials between sites to reduce construction traffic on local roads while we build HS2.

To remind you, we have been carrying out preparation works to install the conveyor system between our sites in your local area. We are continuing works next to Grand Union Canal to prepare for installation of the conveyor crossing between our Atlas Road and Willesden Euroterminal sites. We will be trimming trees located in the Grand Union Canal embankment. These works are planned from 19 to 23 July and will be carried out between 8am and 6pm. The dates for these works may change.

A map showing the location of these works is included on the next page.
