Esh Winning Sewer

Northumbrian Water are working in your are to improve our sewer network to reduce the risk of pollution incidents in Esh Winning. The Esh Winning sewer runs in close proximity to the Priest Burn and, at times of heavy rainfall, it can present a risk of pollution to the river. The solution we identified to this includes the installation of a new pumping station in the field opposite South Terrace and a new pipeline along the main road into the sewage treatment works.

Good morning,

I just wanted to give you all a quick update on how things are going on site this week.

The drainage installation works on South Terrace have been temporarily reinstated until we recommence from Tuesday 31st August. The two-way traffic lights will be back in operation on the stretch of carriageway outside of Woodview Car Sales from this date.

The site team have been keeping themselves busy by ensuring the site is clean and tidy and keeping on top of the high standards.

This week they are carrying out further works within the pumping station area to prepare for the second phase of the drainage installation. This includes; topsoil stripping, re-profiling of the land and setting up herras fencing complete with the tree protection area.

Hope you all have lovely bank holiday weekend!

Thanks

Becky
