What happened
Anglian Water is installing a 7,460m pipeline to provide wastewater network capacity for a new town planned on the site of former RAF Alconbury. The construction involves Barhale building twin pipelines, predominantly in open-cut, with challenging installations beneath the River Great Ouse. The project is scheduled for handover in November 2027.
Why it matters
The project addresses the need for additional sewer network capacity due to housing and commercial growth, climate change, and urban expansion. This infrastructure expansion is necessary to futureproof the network and support the continued growth of the area.
