Thames Tideway Tunnel - C405 Main Works West - Hammersmith Deaeration Gallery & Connection Culvert

The Thames Tideway Tunnel project (the Project) will control CSO discharges by intercepting and diverting combined sewage flows into a new storage and transfer tunnel. The main tunnel will run from Acton Storm Tanks in west London to Abbey Mills Pumping Station in the east, where it will connect to the Lee Tunnel, which will transfer the combined sewage to Beckton Sewage Treatment Works for treatment. The Project extends from Acton Storm Tanks in west London, to Abbey Mills Pumping Station in east London. The Project includes associated works at Beckton STW, Shad Thames Pumping Station and Bekesbourne Street.

The geographic layout of the Project and local authorities through which it passes is shown in Figure 1.

Section 4: Scope of Works

As part of the works for the Thames Tideway West project at Hammersmith Pumping Station (HAMPS), BMB are required to construct a Connection Culvert that will take the storm flows from the existing Thames Water Infrastructure into the new Tideway Tunnels and a Deaeration Gallery providing ventilation throughout the system. The pumping station is sited to the north of the River Thames, just west of the Hammersmith Bridge. These works are to run concurrently with other BMB areas of work including CSO Drop Shaft and Inlet Channel works. Full welfare facilities will be provided to all sub-contractors.

This is for the construction of the permanent RC structures detailed below and include:
