Together with our supply partner, ESH-MWH, we have undertaken a detailed study of the sewer network to establish the cause of flooding in the area. We want to keep you informed about our investigations and work we are considering in the Woods Terrace area.
WHERE WE WILL BE WORKING AND WHAT THE WORK WILL INVOLVE
Together with our supply partner, ESH-MWH, we plan to carry out over £1 million of investment work between Monday 6 February 2017 and Friday 31 July 2017. This essential work will include the installation of a new section of sewer pipe in the area to the rear of Woods Terrace.
We are working closely with Durham County Council to make sure any disruption is kept to a minimum. Our site team will approach customers in advance who are likely to be directly affected by our work. Additionally, we will ensure regular bin collections are not disrupted.
Typical working hours will be Monday to Friday, between 8.00am and 6.00pm. We may also be working between 8.00am and 6.00pm on weekends to make sure we complete this work as quickly as possible.
Please be aware that the dates and progress of our works are subject to weather and site conditions.
During this work, construction traffic will need access to all working areas and to our temporary site compound which will be located in the grassed area to the rear of Woods Terrace.
