Project Update 26/11/2025

From "Gallows Corner"

Go to the project

Hi everyone,

We wanted to let you know about our continued progress at Gallows Corner, in line with the agreed programme.

You may recall we had two phases of pipelaying within the roundabout itself. The eastern section was completed earlier in the month, allowing us to progress on the second section, on the west side, and this is now also complete.

The remainder of our water main diversion work involves pipelaying outside of the roundabout area, working west and east away from the roundabout itself.

We have two crews pipelaying concurrently on the A12, to the west of the roundabout, to maintain best possible progress, while a third team has this week mobilised to the east, where we will microtunnel away from the roundabout on the A127.

Our section of pipelaying further east has been completed and reinstated, awaiting connection work.

We will continue to press ahead, aiming to complete our diversion work as efficiently and safely as possible, to support the completion of the wider flyover project and re-opening of this important road network.

We would like to thank you again for your patience and understanding while this is carried out.
