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
Whilst the project team are on site there will be three-way traffic lights in place on Ovingham Road near to the pumping station at various times. This will allow the site team to carry out the construction works and will ensure the safety of the general public and road users.
