Update by Nick Warner

Hello

After my introduction last month, I just wanted to provide a further update regarding the progress of our work on site.

Our work continues to progress well although, as I’m sure you will have realised, the weather continues to be less than kind to all of us and has made site conditions far from ideal for our team. Whilst this has undoubtedly made the progress of some of our work slower than we would prefer, we are pleased to report that we remain on course to complete our project by the end of March next year.

We currently anticipate being able to complete the installation of all hardstanding areas, including access footpaths within the site prior to the Christmas break.

We are of course, approaching the end of the year; a time when many take annual leave to spend time with family and friends. Whilst our site team will suspend work from 18 December 2020 to 4 January 2021, from an operational perspective, the site will continue to function fully, serving the community as it always does. Our normal operational team will therefore remain and adhere to their usual work patterns, retaining full access to the site during the festive period.

I look forward to being able to provide a further update early in the new year however, in the meantime I wish you and your families well during the end of year break.

As before, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch, either via this portal or by contacting our Customer Centre by telephone on 0345 717 1100. Please ask to speak with a member of the project team.

Kind regards
