Hello All,
Important update on completed work in your area
The good news is that we have now substantially completed construction work associated with the Durham Transfer project. The project has added flexibility to our sewage treatment provision at Plawsworth and Pity Me and will help to improve the water quality of the Blackdene Burn and ensure that the treatment facilities and connecting network continues to serve the community effectively. The upgrade work included the construction of:
Two new transfer pumping stations at Plawsworth and Pity Me Sewage Treatment Works
Circa 3km of pumped mains
Circa 3km of gravity sewer including critical pipework beneath the East Coast Main Line and pipe bridge crossing the Redhouse Gill (Brasside)
While we have completed all construction work and commissioned the new transfer pumping stations, we are still completing final field reinstatement along the pipeline easement and our main compound site off Finchale Road.
Thank you for your patience and support.
