We are investing £2.2 million to improve the water supply in the west end of Newcastle.

Update by Sarah Jayne Parvin

Good evening everyone,

We wanted to share a further update with you on our progress on removing materials from site.  

Unfortunately, we have had two failed attempts at removing kit from site this week and so progress on the project has been further impacted.  We must access site via Linden Avenue, both because of the size of the vehicles and the weight restrictions on the West Road access gate.  

In order for us to be able to complete works and remove materials, we require ample access and egress manoeuvrability for the vehicles.  This means that we need the areas immediately beside as well as on the approach to this gate to be clear.  We have explained these areas previously, and this has not changed.  This will allow vehicles to safely and efficiently access and then leave site.

We appreciate that this may require customers to park in alternate locations for a short period during the working day, but respectfully ask that vehicles parked on Linden Avenue are repositioned to allow us to complete this work; our intention is to do it before Christmas but this is only possible if easy and full access is given.  

Thanks again for your patience and support.

Best wishes

The Project Team
