Thanington Road, Canterbury

Our team has now temporarily left the working site.

We are looking to schedule a date when we will return to carry out the final section of work required and will update you when this has been confirmed.

We are in the process of commissioning the new water mains which have now been laid. As part of this process we will be carrying out some work to connect the pipes to the wider network.

These works may require a short interruption to supply whilst the work is carried out and we’ll confirm the dates in due course.

We’ve laid all new water main and now need to make connections to the existing network and are planning these.

We’ll then need to test all new main, chlorinate it to make sure it is safe to carry drinking water and finally commission it and bring it into service.

We have now completed laying all 410 metres of water mains on this project and we’re working to reinstate the working area..

Our next connection on Cockering Road is currently scheduled for Thursday, 16 July. When we make this connection, there may be a short interruption to supply. We’ll work to complete this as quickly as possible to minimise disruption to customers.

Further work will be required for a small section of pipeline on the A28 Thanington Road, with a connection now planned for Monday, 30 July.

We will also be installing a key piece of equipment near Howfield Manor on the evening of Tuesday, 18 August which may also include a short interruption to supply. We are sorry for this and we’ll work to minimise disruption as much as possible.

We aim to make our next connection on Cockering Road on Thursday, 16 July. This had previously been scheduled for Tuesday, 30 June, but has been pushed back due to unforeseen circumstances.

We have 40 metres of pipeline to install in Cockering Road and we plan to make a further connection to our network on Cockering Road on Tuesday, 30 June.

During this time, there may be a short interruption to supply while we carry out this work. We’ll work to complete this as quickly as possible to minimise disruption to customers.

Around 369 metres of water main have now been laid in Strangers Lane, we are now approaching our turning on to Cockering Road.

We completed work to connect to our network on Strangers Lane and Cockering Road on Tuesday, 16 June.

This was part of a series of connections we need to make that may impact customers' water supply for a short period of time. Once each connection has been carried out, customer supplies will be restored.

We'll provide updates on dates for further connections once confirmed.

Approximately 334 metres of water main have now been laid in Strangers Lane as our teams continue to progress well on this project.

We will also be making a series of connections to our network that may impact customer supply for a very short time.

The first of these is on Tuesday, 16 June on Strangers Lane, the next connection is on Tuesday, 30 June on Cockering Road.

Once the connections have been carried out, customer supplies will be turned back on.

We are continuing to excavate and install the new mains, progressing along Strangers Lane, north of Ashenden Close.

We’re working in sections and returning the area to its original condition as we move up the road.

We’ve now started to dig out trenches in Strangers Lane and have laid the first 12 meters of new water main on this project.

Work has begun on Stranger’s Lane and test holes have been dug out in order to advise the best route through the ground for the new main.

We expect to be on this section of the project until Tuesday 23 June.
