Horsley Water Treatment Works Upgrade

A £46M project to upgrade Horsley WTW has now reached a key milestone. We have selected our partner Mott MacDonald Bentley (MMB), to upgrade the treatment works.

Update by Geoff Joyce

Hi, everyone

Latest update from Horsley WTW Upgrade:

Work has continued apace to the Birney Hill Pumping Station, part of the base slab was concreted earlier this week. Mechanical installations have continued to both the Actiflo and Rapid Gravity Filters areas. pipe and duct laying work continued to the external areas. Some time was lost on Wednesday and Thursday this week due to high winds (there's a surprise).

I'm working with a bloke who reckons that we didn't put a man on the moon. In 1969 I was there watching live on black and white TV. And I've got the photo to prove it (see attached). Neil, nobody should be that cynical!

I've come up with a cunning plan - if we get Trump to declare Newcastle as the capital of England we'll probably a get high-speed railway system in double quick time to link the rest of the UK with the Northern Powerhouse.

Have a good weekend.

Geoff
