GENERAL PROJECT

Wellfield Rising Main

Looking after the environment and reducing the risk of pollution are two of our top priorities. As part of this commitment, and to help make Wellfield a great place to live, work and visit, we plan to invest within the sewerage network to upgrade our existing assets.

Update by Peter Greenan

Hi

I'm the Project Manager for this project and would like to update you on progress.  Our Framwork Partners MMB (Mott MacDonald Bentley) have completed site survey work and ground investigation to confirm a propoosed  route for the new rising main.  This option has been costed and we are currently reviewing this cost and confirming that this project meets Northumbrian Water's  current benefits criteria.  Once this is confirmed we can progress plans for the Detail Design and get a better idea the  likely construction dates which will hopefully commence in Spring 2021 and take an estimated 4 months.  I will update this page once there is something significant to report.  I hope this is OK for now but if not or you have any queries then please let us know. 

Peter
