GENERAL PROJECT

Holton Valley Farm, Bungay Road

Essex and Suffolk Water are carrying out some Groundwater source investigation works near to Holton Village. These investigation works, involving drilling and testing of a new Groundwater Borehole, are within the field we already own off of Bungay Road. This essential investigatory works will help to inform our future investment and any further work we may carry out on the water supply network. This will help ensure that our existing water supply network remains resilient in the future and that we continue to supply our existing customers in the area with great tasting tap water.

Project Update – Bungay Road, Holton

Our drilling works are progressing well at our site on Bungay Road, Holton. I’d like to update you on some upcoming road closures.

Monday 7th to Friday 11th April 2025

To enable the installation of pipework beneath Bungay Road and to ensure the safety of both our site team and road users, a road closure will be in place from Monday 7th April to Friday 11th April 2025.

  • Advance warning signs will be installed over the weekend of 22nd/23rd March.
  • Access to all properties will be maintained; however, residents will only be able to access their properties from one direction as the road will be blocked at our site entrance.
  • Pedestrian and cycle access will remain open.

We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

Planned Further Road Closure – 27th to 30th May 2025

A further road closure is planned from 27th to 30th May 2025 to allow us to demobilise our plant and equipment on completion of this phase of works. These dates may be subject to change, as the completion date depends on the progress of borehole drilling and testing, which can vary. I will provide an update closer to the time.
