Remediation works for the National Horizon Centre, Darlington

The works comprise site remediation works for a proposed new research and teaching facility. This involves the removal of two historic spoils heaps within the site curtilage. It is the intention to remove the mounds down to a level appropriate to the surrounding ground level in accordance with the levels identified by the project engineer. In order to facilitate the mound removal it will be necessary to remove small areas of invasive plant species in the form of Giant Hogweed and Japanese Knotweed.

The site is located to the south of The Centre for Professional and Executive Development, a Teesside University building on Vicarage Road, DL1 1JW. (National Grid Reference NZ 29716 14732)
