Fontburn Water Mains Upgrade

Northumbrian Water are working to improve the water network in the Bedlington and surrounding area. The work has been divided into various phases and will be carried out by both Northumbrian Water and Esh-Stantec. This work will include: the maintenance of existing assets (valves) and the installation of new assets on our strategic water mains from Fontburn to North Tyneside. Other works will include the de-commissioning of some existing water mains predominately in Bedlington area, and the installation of control and monitoring equipment across the general area mainly at Northumbrian Water sites. These improvements will contribute to greater control and monitoring of the water network in maintaining supplies for the future.

Update by Becky Gartland

Good afternoon, 

Just a quick update to let you know that you will see our crews working in the carriageway of Millburn Terrace tomorrow between 9:30 and 15:30. As part of the ongoing water network improvents being carried out in Bedlington and the surrounding areas, our site team will be removing a manhole cover from the road surface where part of the drainage network is no longer in use. There will be two-way traffic lights in operation whilst this work is being carried out.

If there are any concerns please contact us on 0345 717 1100.
