This work also includes for the installation of new bollards, adaptation and renewal of edgings and the groundwork associated with new cable ducting routes and HDPE water pipework for standpipes around the estate. Logistics to entrance ways and ensuring access to all areas will be key as the works are taking place during our busiest time of year during February Half term. Commencing January through to March 31st, the works must be completed by 31st March 2023 due to funding constrictions.
