Murton (Berwick) Water Treatment Works Upgrade

As part of our ongoing investment programme and to ensure the highest level of customer service, we are planning to extend and improve the existing Water Treatment Works at Murton, near Berwick. It is intended that the new works will be located adjacent to the existing buildings. The main construction work commenced in late 2018 and is due to complete in September 2020.

Good Morning,

The last update for 2019.......

Above ground pipework installation is progressing well both in the Treatment Building and the Pumping Station.
The electrical contractor is continuing with the testing in the Treatment Building plus finishing the snagging work.
The contact tanks and balance tanks are still under test.
External work to the building is continuing although the weather hasn't helped
Scottish Power are to install a transformer kiosk this week.

Just to let you know from Monday 13th January 2020 to Friday 24th January 2020 we will introduce a road closure to the site with a diversion in place. (as previously) This is to accommodate the introduction of the mains into the highways verge as we will have to tie in the mains and pipework.

It remains for me to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for 2020.
