GENERAL PROJECT

Selset Reservoir Improvement Works

Together with our supply partners Esh Stantec we plan to carry out improvement works to Selset Reservoir over a period of 7 months. These works are needed to ensure the resilience of the reservoir. We will endeavour to keep disruption to a minimum, due to low water levels in the reservoir and the need for construction machinery access and free movement the reservoir will be closed to the public for the duration of our works.

Update by Christine Taylor

Good morning,

As we are now on site at Selset reservoir, I thought it would be a good time to introduce our team and then provide an update from our site team.

My name is Christine Taylor, the Customer Service Manager for Esh Stantec, the contract partner carrying out the works for Northumbrian Water.  The aim of my team is enure we engage with our customers and communities.  

The project on site is led by my colleague, Andrew McKenna, Contracts Manager for Esh Stantec.  Andrew will oversee the work here and at Grassholme reservoir.  He will be working between sites and the office, but is always on hand when we need him.

The Project Manager, Ian Douglas, who is also working at Grassholme too.  Ian is on site, overseeing all the work along our team, his job is to ensure everything goes to plan.  He is always happy to help if you have any questions.

Can I take this opportunity to remind our customers that the construction site is a dangerous place, the general public are not permitted within our working area for their own safety. 

Have a lovely weekend and enjoy the sunshine, we will be back in touch soon.
