Good morning,

This is a great day for the residents of the area, this is our farewell post as we have now completed all our works and removed our compound.  The compound area has been cleared, levelled and top soiled.  Our old site entrance has been reinstated back to the existing footpath.

We will have landscapers in the area in the next few weeks, so I will still be here, on the portal watching to ensure our customers remain happy.  Later this year, once the Environment Agency has completed works in the watercourse, we will send a team to remove our sedimats under the fall tree.  Do not hestiate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns over the next few months.

Me and Adam would like to personally thank all residents for their patience throughout the works.

Have a great weekend and a wonderful Jubilee celebration next week.

Christine and Adam

Good morning,

I hope everyone had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend?

As we posted on Friday, the main work in the back lane is completed and it is now re-open.  This week Adam will be organising for the wall to be cleaned off, this is currently planned for Thursday.  CCTV of the sewer will also be taking place this week.

Over the next couple of weeks, the team will be starting works to reinstate the compound area on the the junction of Salters Bridge and Killingworth Road.

Whilst we are in the area, we will continue to provide updates.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

Christine

Great news!

As you can see the back lane is now open and ready to use. Adam has asked that customers don't park on it until after 6pm as the tarmac is still soft.

Have a wonderful bank holiday.

Christine

Good afternoon,

It's great news!

Our work is close to completion in the back lane.  We are expecting the tarmac on Thursday and Friday, and then the lane will be open.

Next week, our supply partners Pipetek will be carrying out CCTV and a further contractor jetwashing the wall. The lane will remain open whilst these works are completed.

Tomorrow our customers will not see our crews, as they are working in the main compound whilst we wait for the tarmac.

Thank you for your continued patience.

Christine

Good morning,

Sorry for the late update.  

This week the team continued with removal of coffer dam from the Ouseburn watercourse. These works have been hampered by the weather and high river levels.

Planned works for next week:

• Complete removal of the coffer dam from the Ouseburn.
• Commence works to reinstating the back lane, starting with the installation of the gully, followed by installing kerbs to narrow footpath at rear of the new wall.

Have a lovely weekend.

Christine and the team

Good afternoon, 

The weather has certainly been very different this week, compared to last, as you'll see from Adam's photo's attached. The site team however have remained positive and have still managed to progress with the works as detailed below:

Progress this week:

Additional silt protection measures installed on Monday, due to the fallen tree in the Ouseburn watercourse covering existing silt protection measures.

Commence removal of coffer dam to the watercourse.

Removal of the coffer dam being hampered by rain and snow, causing high water levels to the river.

Planned works for next week:

Continue with the removal of the coffer dam from the river.

The pumping tank is being removed from site on Monday, late morning. If we could continue to ask residents not to park in the back lane during working hours.

If you have any queries at all, please get in touch with us. 

Regards 

Becky
