Next Steps

The next steps surrounding the project will focus on the enabling works, which are required prior to the commencement of the approved construction.

DCWW, via approved contractors, will commence the agreed diversion works over the coming weeks; all works will take place within the site boundary and are not envisaged to impact on the facilities to the local community. This work is undertaken by DCWW as a statutory undertaker (permitted development) and is outside of the planning permission, which was granted in October.

This enabling works will commence with the formation of a site compound, security works including fencing, delivery of equipment and machinery, and trial pits over the next few weeks – and will lead into the raw water main diversion works.

Further update’s will be provided once the construction contract has been awarded to the successful team – and to outline communication and construction management plans including key contacts during the construction phase.
