GENERAL PROJECT

CURRENT WEATHER

8°C

Heybridge

Over the winter of 2017/18, Essex & Suffolk Water, in partnership with Essex Waterways, will be replacing the sea lock gate and central timber mitre gates at Heybridge Basin in Essex. The project will involve the closing and draining of the lock in October 2017, crane lifting operations for the gates and the assembly and testing of the new gates prior to the re-opening of the lock in March 2018. There will be disruption in the area during this work period but we will endeavour to keep this to an absolute minimum.

Good morning all

As you will have noticed over the past couple of weeks, we have been removing our site fencing and equipment with the re-opening of the lock.

This Thursday 20th April, we shall be removing our site cabins. There will be some traffic movements throughout the day with some vehicle access restrictions at times.

Please accept my apologies in advance for any disturbance caused. We shall endeavour to keep any disturbance to a minimum.
