Ryehill, Redcar – Residential Infrastructure Works
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Addison worked as the principle contractor to deliver the road & sewers package for the Gleeson Homes new housing site at Ryehill, Redcar. The location of the site is within the footprint of the old Ryehill comprehensive school and is set in the middle of an existing housing estate. The general works included the construction of a new adoptable highway with a foul & surface water drainage system. More specifically the scheme involved the following:
Road construction included bulk excavation, stone to level, service ducting, laying kerb raft & temporary blocks and laying of the base & binder layers adopted by Redcar & Clevelend Council.
The drainage element of the site includes 290lm of 1200Ø & 900Ø attenuation pipework, 1No hydro-brake manhole & 19 other manholes up to 3.5m deep. Other drainage works included 1st off manholes & gullies. All drainage works were adopted by NWL.
The SW & FW drainage tie-in was in the existing busy Redcar Lane & had to be completed within the 2 week working window of Easter due to the close proximity of the local Rye Hill School. For this section of works Addison were responsible for the TM, reinstatement & liaising with the local authority and residents.
Obtaining all the relevant notices to work, fulfilling all testing requirements, setting out/surveying & liaising with the relevant parties (Redcar & Cleveland Council & NWL etc).
