GENERAL PROJECT

CURRENT WEATHER

14°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.

Hi All,

The lock was reopened to Essex Waterways as planned over the Easter Weekend. We have decommissioned majority of the large plant and equipment, however we will still have a presence on site in April/May 2018 while we finalise testing and commissioning of the sea lock gate and carry out reinstatement of the footpath local to the gate.

As always we Endeavour to keep disruption to a minimum. Please feel free to contact myself if required.
