Durham City Sewer Network Improvements

We are planning work to improve the performance of the sewer network in Durham City and improve your environment.

Good Afternoon everyone,

A quick update on what was a fantastic day yesterday. Micro-tunnelling was completed from Durham University Carpark in Territorial Lane to Old Elvet with no hiccups and it was pleasing to see the Tunnel Boring Machine arrive in the correct place and right on schedule! I've attached some photographs below.

We've mad excellent progress in Elvet Waterside and are currently connecting up pipework and now have an outfall. We hope to have both Old Elvet and Elvet Waterside fully reopened by the end of next week - Thank you very much for your continued patience with changes in both areas.

As ever, please direct any queries to Colin.Butler@jnbentley.co.uk
