Clean Water
Teme Siphon, Elan Valley, Ludlow
CPC Civils were successfully awarded the Teme Siphon Elan Valley, Ludlow contract in 2013 completing works later that year.
CPC have been working on and around water since the mid Nineties and as such have gained a vastly experienced workforce.
For this project CPC Civils would remove and replace two twin 1800mm diameter ductile iron clean water pipes. The pipes, approximately 1.2 kilometres in length, being located in Elan Valley aqueduct.
At delivery phase, CPC Civils set up the site, installing demarcation fencing along the pipe line length.
The team would segregate the full site top soil strip from the future excavation work to avoid contamination.
CPC Civils would have a maximum of six weeks, from the day that the water supply to the aqueduct was stopped, to complete works.
Works would consist of replacing the existing pipes, pressure test, swab and chlorinate prior to full commissioning.
Our team would produce a Construction Programme allowing for the project’s completion within six weeks.
To allow project acceleration and timescales to be met, dual gangs on a rolling programme were set up.
The first gang would begin at the most southerly point of the project. The second gang would start 600 meters away.
CPC Civils also set up two compounds. This would minimise the time lost in site labour, with staff travelling distance to the welfare units for breaks.
Finally, all site materials required would be in place prior to the team capping off the pipes.
