Wapping Burn Rising Main Replacement

Northumbrian Water are working with communities to proactively manage flood and pollution risk. We are committed to providing a high quality service and have identified an opportunity to improve our sewer network to reduce the risk of pollution events from the rising main which runs in close proximity to the Wapping Burn water course.

Hi Everyone

I've been Wapping Burn today and met with Darren, so we'd like to provide an update about progress. As you can see, things are within touching distance of finishing. The compound is being gradually removed and will be off site by the end of next week.

On Wednesday 20 December 2017 we have booked a contractor to permanently reinstate the roads in the entrance to the access to Icarus and in Hunter Road in the junction with Swan Road. This will leave a small amount of reinstatements to be completed in January. The work on Wednesday will be managed by three way traffic lights but we don't expect significant impact on traffc, the Traffic Management contractor will be on site and will manage any traffic build up if there is any.

Hope you all have a great Christmas

Tony
