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.

Update by Becky Gartland

Good evening, 

I hope you all enjoyed your bank holiday weekend!

The site team have kindly provided me with an update for you all along with some images of how things have progressed over the last week. 

Pumping Station Works Area

  • Stripping and setting up the area for the next phase of works
  • Environmental protection complete - tree protection zone and debris silt netting installed

Drainage Installation 

  • The two-way traffic lights and drainage installation works recommenced on Tuesday to continue with the installation of the last section of the gravity feed pipework within the carriageway
  • They have overcome slight delays due to old road construction and safely dealing with overhead cables 
  • These works will continue to progress into next week

If you have any queries regarding this section of works, please feel free to contact me to discuss further. 

Thanks 

Becky
