From "Great Ayton Sewage Treatment Works WINEP"

Go to the project

Hello all,

 Let’s get up to speed on WINEP Great Ayton STW Storm Capacity:

The shaft liner to address the shafts structural issues has been completed. Two pours were undertaken to provide a new reinforced concrete skin inside the existing shaft. All went well and we are now carrying out completion works such as benching the base and the top of liner, waterproofing the unlined rings and looking to start installation of the pipework. Scaffolding inside the shaft has commenced to facilitate this pipework install.

As the main shaft structural works are now complete the dewatering has been switched off and removed. This has cleared the area and opened it up to other works.

Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Control, Automation (MEICA) works have begun to install cabling and pump starters and integrate them with the existing site controls. This works is complete as much as possible until some ducts and the rising main are in place in the shaft area, both of which will be completed ASAP.

We are currently aiming to bring the shaft into operation by the end of the month and, whilst there is still significant further works to be undertaken, this will meet our deadline and allow the new asset to further improve water quality in the local area as part of the existing treatment works.

Thanks for taking the time to read.

Dave Eden PM.
