We run the electricity network delivering power to your area and recently carried out work to install pipework for new electricity cables as part of our ongoing investment in the network to maintain reliable power supplies.
We will be returning for the day on 1 February from 8am to 6pm to relay tarmac in part of the road.
To complete the work safely, traffic lights will be in place to create a safe working zone for our team.
There will be some noise from the digging activities during these works, and you will see members of our team working behind safety barriers.
Access to all affected properties along the route will continue to be maintained at all times. For local refuse collection services, there will be no changes to collection days and access for these vehicles will be permitted throughout the work
We have worked closely with the local authority in planning these works to minimise disruption to the local community wherever possible.

The festive season has barely begun but there’s nothing like being organised, especially at this busy time of year. The Farleigh Hospice annual Christmas Tree Recycling event is back on the 5, 6 & 7 January 2024. Why not tick one thing off your to-do list by registering your tree and they will arrange a hassle-free collection from your home when the festivities are over.
