This project is to provide environmentally friendly fish exclusion screens at the raw water pumping station at Ovingham. These screens are necessary to protect the European Eel and other fish species that are present in the River Tyne. Work will commence April 2023 and anticipated to be complete March 2025
The project team will be establishing a site compounds near to the pumping station. A short haul road will be constructed to allow a crane to be positioned near to the pumping station to allow piling works to be carried out in the river.
