The construction phase of this project is now complete.

GENERAL PROJECT

West Hallington Reservoir Improvements

In order to maintain the safe operation of West Hallington reservoir there are works required to ensure the continued resilience of the asset in order to be compliant with the requirements of the Reservoir Act. In order to do this, it is necessary to carry out works to improve the drawdown capacity of the reservoir which will require construction activity from May 2022 until the end of July 2023. This will result in restrictions to access around the reservoir crest and an increase in construction traffic during this period.

Good afternoon,

A quick update - As the project is coming to an end and the commissioning of the siphon on Monday the 22nd and Thursday 25th January was very successful and without any major disruptions or incidents which is great news. You will be pleased to know that the site is due to be de-commissioned over the coming weeks so you may see a little more activity than normal but hopefully with no disruptions to Colwell Village and surrounding areas, as long as everything runs smoothly and goes to plan we should of vacated site no later than the end of March.

If you have any questions please leave a post below and we will get in touch.

Thank you

Julie
