Another mains replacement scheme successfully delivered by our Water Capital team.
Working for United Utilities on behalf of OCU, our team recently completed a 2km open-cut scheme in Marton, Cheshire, installing a new 225mm PE water main.
The route brought plenty of challenges, particularly around access through the narrow rural lanes, but the team worked through these while keeping the scheme on programme and maintaining high standards throughout.
Just as importantly, local customers were kept informed and looked after while the work took place. The team’s efforts resulted in brilliant feedback from United Utilities and the surrounding community, including an impressive 22 WOW Awards across the scheme.
Our connection with Marton also extended beyond the work itself. With OCU, we were proud to support the Marton Wakes Fete with a £1000 donation, giving something back to the local community that welcomed our team throughout the project.
A great job from everyone involved and a scheme the whole team should be proud of.
