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.

Update by Geoff Joyce

Hi everyone

Please find this week's update below:

Marden Road South

Shaft-sinking operations continued throughout the week. Progress has been slower than hoped due to the discovery of an uncharted underground pipe (which proved to be abandoned) and to ground conditions which were more challenging than expected. 4 shaft rings have been constructed and grouting operations continue to make the shaft watertight.

North View/Burnside Road

Pipelaying activities continued in North View just east of the Metro bridge.

Water main diversions have been tested and final connections were made on Friday. These works will continue next week.

Have a nice weekend.

Geoff
