Our water mains cleaning programme of works has been ongoing now for five years and to date, we have achieved 221km of cleaning works to our mains. There are a number of pipe sections that we still need to clean, with a total length of 9.0km. We are starting this work in August 2018 and anticipate completion in the Apri 2021.

Update by Joan Tatters

Good Morning,

So we have an awful lot going on this week..............

  • Along Denton Road on the junction of Swinley Gardens we will have 3 way traffic lights until 19th April
  • Forster Street in the centre of Newcastle will be closed and a diversion is operational (please see the attached plan), again until 19th April
  • 3 way traffic lights were also planned for this week along Great Lime Road on the junction of Southgate (roundabout), however due to unforeseen circumstance they have been removed early.

We would appreciate your co-operation during this time and please be that little more vigilant. Car drivers please kindly adhere to the road notices and signs as we don't want anyone to get hurt. Our work will be conducted as quickly and safely as possible as we do understand the impact of our presence.

If you would like to as me any questions please feel free.
