Marden Quarry

We are investing £2.5 million to separate Marden Quarry and other sources of surface water from the public sewer network. This will improve the performance of our sewer network and help reduce the risk of flooding. This project is the second and final phase of work being carried out in North Cullercoats.

Hi everyone

Find below the update for week ending friday, 10 June, 2016:

Burnside Road

Pipelaying activities continued with good progress again being made. This work will continue next week, alongside the excavation for a reception pit for the tunnel boring machine adjacent to No. 42 Burnside Road.

Broadway/Marden Quarry

The tunnel boring machine was dropped (carefully) into the drive pit in the compound opposite The Quarry pub. Tunnelling has commenced but only to a point 4 metres outside the drive. Tunnelling work is to continue next week.

Work to convert the reception pit in the grounds of Marden Quarry adjacent to the scout hut continued. This will allow the abandonment of the old 300mm diameter pipeline. Again this work will continue next week.

Have a great weekend

Geoff
