In order to enhancing London\u2019s water infrastructure, UK-based civil engineering and infrastructure specialist Barhale has been granted contracts worth \u00a310m as part of Thames Water\u2019s efforts.<\/p>\n
Two water main upgrade schemes,the phase two works at Victoria Station and work in the Regent\u2019s Park region, are the contents of the contracts.<\/p>\n
Under the Asset Management Period 7 (AMP7), they bring the UK-based company\u2019s total contractual value of the conditional allowance trunk main scheme to more than \u00a330m.<\/p>\n
The scheduled date for completing the works under the contract, both at Victoria Phase Two and Regent\u2019s Park,is November 2025 as Barhale said.<\/p>\n
According to Thames Water program delivery head Jaymin Patel: “Victoria Phase Two and Regent\u2019s Park are part of an important programme of works to enhance the performance of the London water network. By investing in this critical infrastructure, we\u2019re ensuring a more resilient water supply for Londoners while significantly reducing leaks and minimising community disruption.”<\/p>\n
Following completion of Victoria Phase 1, which upgraded the water main running beneath the streets around Victoria Station, Victoria Phase 2 ‘s contract will be implemented.<\/p>\n
Running 400m beneath some of the busiest areas of London, from Eaton Square to Pont Street, the existing 30\u201d cast iron water main will be rehabilitate by Barhale in the second phase.<\/p>\n
The works will primarily involve sliplining the existing asset with a 630mm SDR17 Polyethylene pipe, along with some open-cut work.<\/p>\n
Barhale would leverage its experience in completing Phase 1 works to improve the rate of installation and reduce the impact on residents and businesses.<\/p>\n
Upgradation of the existing 30\u201d steel water main that stretches 1.4km on the eastern side of the park, are the works at Regent\u2019s Park.<\/p>\n
Using opencut for the relatively deep southern connection, Barhale is due to implement the same sliplining approach, with a 630mm SDR17 Polyethylene pipe.<\/p>\n
“For different reasons, these are both really busy parts of London and we see it as a priority to minimise the impact of our work. Critical factors in the successful delivery of Phase One at Victoria were the investment in community engagement and our focus on reducing the physical impact of works. This enabled us to use fewer pits, speeding up the process and allowing us to reinstate sooner and we will be applying the same thinking through Phase Two and at Regent\u2019s Park,” said Barhale contracts manager Steve Collett.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
