Horsley Water Treatment Works Upgrade

Hi everyone

I hope everybody enjoyed the festive break (I know it seems like a long time ago now). Work to the scheme re-commenced on Monday and already it feels like we've never been away.

Work continued to install blinding concrete to the Rapid Gravity Filter area at the south end of the site. However, the weather in the latter half of the week has hampered progress, mainly due to the high winds which scuppered the use of the cranes. The photo of the horizontal wind sock does not lend itself to emphasise the reality of the wind speeds encountered.

A couple of delivery vehicles have recently inadvertently accessed the Treatment Works via Mill Way. These vehicles were not associated with the current scheme, but we have, on request, erected signs which are visible from both directions (east and west) to advise that access to the Works is not allowed via this route. (photo attached).

Have a nice weekend. Wrap up.
