Once we have finished at our Heathwall site, we will be leaving behind a new area of embankment giving a previously inaccessible vantage point across the river.

Work update

The team started the removal of the cofferdams in February 2023. This is the temporary working area built out into the river. To mitigate for possible vibration the team plan to cut out rather than vibrate out the piling columns. This has worked well at other sites and has also resulted in much quieter operations.

The works will mostly be carried out during daytime standard working hours. However, due to the tides we may have some works that extend past these hours and we will do all we can to give you advance notice of such occasions.

We also started our scour protection works in mid February 2023. These works are carried out in the river outside of the site. We currently estimate that the works will take around two months to complete.
