GENERAL PROJECT

Kelloe Upgrade

Starting in Autumn 2022, as part of a £6.4 million scheme, we will be carrying out essential work to improve the performance of our wastewater treatment works in Kelloe. The scheme will help to improve the water quality of the Coxhoe Beck, as well as the watercourses downstream. We are yet to confirm an exact date when the works will commence, however this is likely to be early October 2022 to commence ground stabilisation works, however we will confirm this closer to the date.

Hi everyone,

It's been over a year since my last update. I apologise for this, however we have been reviewing the previously proposed works and considering more resilient alternatives. We are now finalising our plans, and although our revised planning drawings are not yet complete, we do have a proposed new site layout, which incorporates the additional land we propose to purchase. Apologies as this drawing does contain a lot of technical detail, however this will be removed from the planning drawings.

Please click on the following to view the drawing.

Proposed New Site Layout

The planning drawings will be posted once they are complete and ready for submission.

At present we are yet to finalise a construction commencement date, however this is likely to be early 2023, however we will confirm this closer to the date.

We’d really like to hear your views on this essential work and how we can work with you to minimise any disruption you and your community may experience.
