Abnormal Load Collection - Friday 19th July
Thank you to all residents who assisted with the successful delivery of large equipment to the construction site on Friday 21st June by keeping the road free of vehicles.
This equipment is now due to be collected from Old Rishworthian Rugby Club on the evening of Friday 19th July. The transport vehicles will be arriving into the village at approximately 18:00 where the equipment will be loaded. They will depart the village under police escort at 20:00. The timings for the collection of this equipment have been mandated by West Yorkshire Police to minimise disruption to the surrounding roads.
To ensure the collection can take place safely and as smoothly as possible, we would kindly request that residents refrain from parking vehicles on Copley Lane. Please note that this does include the small parking area next to the canal access point on Copley Lane.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
Saturday working - 20th July
In order to minimise the impact to progress due to recent poor weather, the site team will be working on Saturday 20th July, between 09:00 – 15:00. They will be working along the section of embankment between St Stephen’s Street and Copley Lane. The work will involve taking deliveries of stone to prepare the embankment behind Lydbrook Park for the next section of piling. This initial preparation work has been impacted by poor weather and unexpected obstructions in the ground from the old Mill. Our Piling Subcontractor has made excellent progress on the section of embankment behind Copley Lane, so by working on Saturday, the team will be able to keep on track with the programme and move on to start piling the Lydbrook Park section towards the end of next week.
We apologise for any inconvenience this work may cause, and we would like to reassure residents that weekend working will be kept as minimal as possible.
Public Drop-In - 17th July
We held a public drop-in on Wednesday 17th July at Old Rishworthian Rugby Club. Thank you to everyone who came along to meet some of the project team and find out more about the progress to date and work ahead.
