GENERAL PROJECT

Fontburn Lime Dosing

Northumbrian Water is investing £3 million to upgrade the Water Treatment Works at Fontburn to make sure you continue to receive excellent quality tap water in the future. The work, which will commence from early March 2020 will see upgrades to the facilities and water treatment equipment within the site and we aim to complete this by September 2020. Northumbrian Water’s trusted partner, Interserve Construction Limited will be carrying out this work on our behalf. Residents may notice an increase of vehicular traffic to and from the site whilst deliveries are made although we will of course do all we can to keep the disruption to a minimum. Please be assured that your water supply will not be affected by these works. Glyn Jenkins NWL Project Manager

Hello everyone. Works at the Fontburn site are progressing very well. In this update, I want to tell you about the civils works that are being carried out on site.

We have stated the civils works in the existing waste water building. We are building the lime mixing and lime dosing infrastructure.

The construction of the reinforced concrete structures is progressing well.

The delivery of the new silos are planned for the early part of this year.

We are planning a number of heavy lifting operations. These are to install new equipment on site.
