Good afternoon,

I would like to take this opportunity to update you on the next steps of the upgrade to the sewer network. The road closure on Haggs Lane from Lamesley Road will be removed on Friday 16 June 2023. We appreciate that this is an extension to our original date, and we apologise for this and thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

On Monday 19 June 2023 3-way traffic management will be set up on Greenford Lane and Kibblesworth Bank for a period of 7 weeks, to complete the second section of the installation. As the installation moves past the junction this will be reduced to 2-way traffic lights while we complete the connection.

Please contact us direct if you have any questions at nwl.customer@esh.uk.com or 0191 3774500.

Thank you

Good morning, 

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say hello and introduce myself as some of you may have seen me in the area this week. My name is Becky Gartland and I work alongside Rachel and Christine within the Customer Team for Esh Stantec. Having recently returned from Maternity Leave I am in the process of getting caught up with the ongoing work that has been happening in your local area and will be an additional point of contact should anyone have any queries or concerns. 

Whilst on site last week I have taken some photos of the additional signage that has been put in place following the feedback received from residents. 

If you have any further queries at this time, please feel free to send me a message by commenting on this post or emailing nwl.customer@esh.uk.com
