Overnight Works - London Road

There is, at present, a collapsed sewer on the former Fison's site on London Road. This is being worked on by United Utilities (UU) and unfortunately, causing night time disturbance as the problem is dealt with.

UU have supplied the following information:

We are maintaining and improving the sewer network in your area to help deal with the demand from growing communities, improve how it copes during periods of heavy rainfall and make sure it’s kept in tip-top condition.

What will our work involve?

• Ongoing sewer tankering to prevent foul flooding.

How this may affect you

We understand roadworks can be inconvenient and our team will do all they can to minimise any disruption for you and the local community.

• We have ongoing 24/7 tankering in the area whilst we look to rectify an issue with the sewer.

• We apologize for any inconvenience this is causing; we will try to minimize inconvenience where possible.

• We are looking to rectify this issue as soon as possible. This tankering is beneficial to reduce the risk of flooding in the meantime.

Thanks for your patience while we’re carrying out this work. You can still use all your facilities and appliances that generate wastewater as normal while the work takes place.

The work to repair the sewer has not yet been scheduled - more information has been requested and further updates will be provided when available.
