Replacement Gas Main Works

Residents in Rew Street and Cockleton Lane in Gurnard will be aware that works have just started on the Cross-Solent Gas Main at Horn Hill.
Last week I attended a meeting with the Clerk and Chairman of Gurnard Parish Council with contractors and have been advised that from the 10th October site cabins and noise barriers (packing containers, secured by sand bags are considered the most effective!) will be put in place. It is anticipated that the rigs will arrive between the 18th and 20th October and this will undoubtedly cause disruption to those living nearby. Whilst we were assured nearby residents are due to be mail-shotted.

SGN are due to start the 24 hr drilling for the first of two pipelines towards the end of October, This is due to last for up to 60 days, with completion due before Christmas.

Cockleton Lane will be closed during February due to the Pipes being delivered . If you have any questions, please let me know so that I can pass your enquiries on to the contractor.
