Johnson Street, Gateshead

Johnson Street Gateshead - Overflow Screening Northumbrian Water is looking to improve the resilience and enhance the performance of the sewer network in the Gateshead catchment.

Update by Ian Davison

Good Morning,

　

I hope you all remain well.

　

As you know, we are carrying out works in the area as part of an essential investment crucial to providing reliable wastewater service, and protect the environment, now and into the future.

The work in the playing fields has been progressing well, in the coming weeks it will be necessary to close Johnson Street / Yetholm Road to clear the location of a proposed manhole of utilities in advance of its construction.

We are closely following all of the latest government guidance and NHS advice and currently, the construction phase of this work is scheduled begin on Tuesday 14 April. During this time, the road will be closed to through-traffic for five weeks, although vehicular and pedestrian access will be maintained for residents.

　

We had discussed holding a customer information event with residents in order for them to find out more and feedback on the work we were planning. However in light of the current situation and advice, we are now offering customers telephone appointments with the Project Manager as an alternative should they wish to find out more.

 

We are issuing a letter to residents in the area this week, which is likely to land on doorsteps on Friday. I have attached a plan of work for your information.

　

As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

　

Kind regards

Ian
