We are investing £8 million to improve the performance of our sewer network in the Roker, Seaburn, Fulwell and St Peter's areas of Sunderland and Cleadon in South Tyneside.

Hi Everyone

I visited Roker Park with the site team yesterday and was hugely impressed with how the reinstatements are going. We are well on the way to completing the area that used to be The Rose Garden. As planned, we've created a meandernig swale through the garden with a similarly meandering path intersecting it - it looks great! At the moment, the soil looks a little barren, but the seed will soon cultivate and create a lovely green and colourful place.

You may remember we took part in a Roses Dig with Ceed in the Rose Garden some time ago and I took some photos of that. I have attached them to remind you how the garden looked and I've also attached a few photos that I took yesterday to compare, so you can see just how much of an improvement it is.

Great work by all involved!

Tony
