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

Despite the miserable weather suffered throughout the week, work progressed well again. Wall construction continued to the RGF area to the south end of the site, with concrete placement and reinforcement fixing.

Construction of the edge ground beam commenced with the first section to the north west corner of the Actiflo building completed today, Friday.

Foundation work to the Chemical Building at the north west side of the Actiflo Building commenced with steelfixing and formwork erection.

The glamour boys (mechanical fitters) are back on site and have started the installation of pipework in the Actiflo Gallery.

We seem to have hit a period of "slow news" and together with the fact that all on site have stopped telling me of their latest adventures lest I forward the tales on this page, I have no anecdotal pleasantries to offer this week. I'm off for a short break for the first half of next week, so I'm sure I'll have stories of glee and woe in equal measure next week.

Have a good weekend.

Geoff
