Update by Sarah Jayne Parvin
We're pleased to provide you with the latest progress on various segments of the Springwell Enhancements Project.
Mount Lane Road Closure
The four-week closure of Mount Lane is currently in effect. After some initial challenges and adjustments, including repositioned signage, we expect smoother operations moving forward. The closure is set to conclude on May 24th.
Eighton Banks Progress and Water Supply Interruption
Pipelaying continues towards the Mount Community Centre. We have scheduled a water supply interruption for May 9th, from 9:00 AM to 11:45 AM, this is to allow localised pipe realignment. Affected properties were notified on Wednesday. Preparatory excavations at the junction of Rear of Thomas Street and Galloping Green Lane will start on May 7th, with road reinstatement by the end of May 10th. Traffic will be restricted on this section throughout the week, google image and location below.
Footpath Updates at Eighton Banks
The team is assessing the reopening of public right of way footpaths near Eighton Banks towards the end of May. We will provide updates as they become available.
Reservoir Construction Progress
The reservoir structure is visibly shaping up with the next concrete pour planned for early June. Current work includes wall infills, and the placement of columns and roof beams, take a look at this Video, to see progress so far.
Trenchless Pipeline Directional Drilling
This week, directional drilling for pipeline sections on land adjacent to Broom Court is underway, with plans to drill under Springwell Road next week. This drilling approach has eliminated the need for road closures that traditional open-cut methods would necessitate.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we progress with these essential enhancements. Should you have any questions or feedback, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thanks
Sarah
