Outwoods Reservoir

Good morning residents

I wanted to inform you all that we are undertaking a large concrete pour to the floor slab on Monday 10th April.

This will mean there will be some disruption with delivery times of the concrete lorries.

We aim to start with the first deliveries at 7.30am with a steady stream of lorries coming to site throughout the day.

The concrete pour will require appoximately 40 lorry loads of concrete. There will be no reason for the lorries to park on Reservoir Road as they will be able to drive directly to the location of the concrete pour.

We will have a large lorry mounted concrete pump on site which has a reach of 47m. The concrete will be poured into the hopper of the pump and then the concrete will be pumped directly to the location required. The operator of the pump has a remote control panel to enable him to move the arm of the pump to the required area and when that area is complete he moves it to the next area so there is a constant flow of concrete. 

I will upload a video of the concrete pump in action on Monday.

If anyone has any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thanks

Barry
