Update by Nick Warner

Hello

I just wanted to provide a further update regarding our work in Hepscott.

The good news is that the major construction work at the site is now complete.

As you may have noticed, our supply partner ESH, have been on site since early last week. They are currently working on the installation of land drainage to the bottom of our works. Once this is complete, reinstatement work will follow. At this point in time, we anticipate that reinstatement will commence on Monday, 24 May 2021 and is scheduled to be complete by 28 May 2021. In the meantime, Esh have confirmed that the topsoil that we intend to use for the reinstatement work will be delivered next week, during 18 & 19 May. The delivery itself will be via heavy vehicle – approximately five loads - over the two days noted, to deliver approximately 100 tonnes of topsoil. As always, our aim will be to ensure any disruption to residents is kept to a minimum.

As with my previous updates, these timescales remain weather dependent, especially bearing in mind current conditions. Whilst we remain confident of meeting these expectations, the topsoil we intend to use will require favourable weather.

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

You can also leave comments on this site, but please be aware they are not constantly monitored and so we may not be able to respond as quickly to contact via this method.

Kind regards

Nick Warner

Customer Care Manager
