During the past month the team have completed the following:
- We have built up the temporary cycle / footpath ready for the tarmac finish, the cycle / footpath will be like for like to the existing cycle / footpath.
- Throughout June we have been constructing our bases for the new GPRS which will provide a platform for our above ground pipework to sit, these platforms are made from reinforced concrete.
- We have also been conducting trial hole investigations along Wharf Road, to ensure the ground below is suitable for the gas mains to be installed.

- Foundations will be created for the telemetry and boiler house, which will house monitoring equipment for the GPRS
- Part of the meadow to the east of the allotments will be excavated to lay underground pipework to the new GPRS location from the existing pipework.
