Examples of machinery being delivered include:
  • Loaders
  • Excavators
  • Telehandlers
  • Articulated dump trucks
  • Rollers
This machinery will be delivered by heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) to the construction compounds. To ensure the safety of these deliveries and future use of the temporary access points, United Infrastructure (UI), will prune some trees around the access points. These works will help reduce roadside debris and improve visibility, allowing for safer entry and exit from the site for all road users. All pruning works have been approved by Chesire West and Chester Council (CWCC) and Flintshire County Council (FCC) and are being undertaken in line with the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP). You can view the CEMP on the CWCC Public Access System by searching the following application reference number: 25/01122/REQ

All deliveries, as well as work around the access points will be carried out in line with the Construction Traffic Management Plan (CTMP) approved by CWCC and FCC. This plan outlines how all works will be undertaken safely, reducing roadside debris and prioritising visibility[PT1] as well as environmental protection. You can view the CTMP on the CWCC Public Access System by searching the following application reference number: 25/01122/REQ
