From "Horsley Water Treatment Works Upgrade"
Go to the project
Good afternoon all,
We are here with our latest update. Work to build the new Chlorine Contact Tank has commenced.
To date we have carried out the enabling works for the scheme including the temporary alignment of the Southern fence line. This was to provide working room for our construction of the chlorine tank. This is still within the water treatment works boundary and will be relocated to its original position after construction is finished.
We have also permanently diverted the surface water sewer and carried out a temporary diversion of the Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) backwash main which removes contaminants like chlorine, taste and odour by absorbing them.
The backwash drainpipe was obstructing the construction of the new chlorine contact tank so it has been temporary relocated until the construction works are complete.
These works have enabled us to construct a temporary stone piling mat which allows piling works to start WC 21st April, mobilising on site on the 22nd. This work may cause an increase in noise and vibration on site however we will continue to try and minimise any disruption where possible.
If there are any issues or queries please leave a comment or contact a member of the project team.
Thank you all again for your patience and cooperation throughout this project.
