What we are doing
We need to work in the Euston Scissor Box area to level off some concrete and install additional joints. We need to use a hydro-scabbling process which uses a high-powered water blaster to reduce the concrete to the required level. Once this process is complete, we will use a vacuum excavator to clear the area. For health and safety reasons, we need to complete these works during the weekend as an exclusion zone is required to protect operatives from flying debris. The exclusion zone also requires us to close the haul road and pedestrian walkway, preventing other works from continuing during this time.
We will work on Saturday 11 and 18 April, from 8am to 6pm and Sunday 12 and 19 April, from 10am to 6pm. If we cannot complete all works during this time, we may require additional weekends as contingency. There will be periods of increased noise while equipment is in use, however we will regularly monitor our noise levels to ensure we are working within the approved limits.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
HS2 is undergoing a comprehensive reset to ensure it can be built efficiently and for the lowest reasonable cost. This work is being carried out in stages and will be completed in 2026. We will provide you with updates on the reset and what this means for our plans to build the railway in your area.
