ONGOING TECHNICAL WORKS AT GILSTON PARK ESTATE

Places for People continue to undertake early technical works to inform the design of infrastructure associated with the delivery of the Gilston Park Estate development.

The survey work is scheduled to start (awaiting confirmation from Hertfordshire County Council) on Monday 18th March 2024 and will last from 10:00pm-09:00am for the duration of 6 NIGHTS ONLY.

The works due to be undertaken are subject to confirmation by the highways authority, Hertfordshire County Council.

Works include Ground Penetration Surveys (GPR) and Trial Holes, with more information about what this means shared below.

GPR Survey Context & Summary

Ground Penetrating Survey (GPR) is a non-invasive survey technique that makes use of radio waves to detect the type, extent and depth of underground services and utilities. This piece of work is required for the Central Stort Crossing enabling works and upgrades of infrastructure ahead the development of the new housing villages. The output of the survey aims to equip the design team with up-to-date information on location and types of services for consideration of the design as a whole, and will help determine any re-routing, diversion and protection mechanisms that may need to be undertaken with the associated works.

Trial Hole Survey Context & Summary

Trial Hole Survey is a survey undertaken to determine and validate the location, depth and extent of utility related services below ground level. This piece of work is required for the Central Stort Crossing enabling works and upgrades of infrastructure ahead the development of the new housing villages. The survey is carried out in accordance with professionally pre-determined locations, either by hand digging of trenches or test pits excavated by small plant. Once the trial holes are excavated and the utility information is retrieved, assessed, and logged, the trial holes are reinstated. This information is then integrated into the overall design of the scheme.

We have notified all key stakeholders to make them aware that members of the team will be visible on site during the survey period, should the works go ahead. I would be grateful if this could be passed on to your network.

Should residents have any queries to contact us using the following details: Freephone number 0800 148 8911. (Monday – Friday 9am-5:30pm) or by emailing us at construction@gilston.info.

If you have any questions regarding these surveys and the nature of the work being undertaken, then please do get in touch by emailing me and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Places for People took the decision in this instance and all future instances that correspondence will be shared with individual parish councillors directly, to avoid any delay in the information being disseminated by Parish Clerks. If there are other parish councillors who do not have a publicly available email address, we would ask you to extend this information to us for this purpose..
