  • Construction of sewage pump station and associated sewer works.
  • Wet well (up to 9m deep).
  • Gravity sewers and rising mains (1.5km up to DN300 in size and 7m deep).
  • Maintenance structures and emergency relief structure.
  • Air valve, valve and flow meter pits.
  • Concrete works (hardstand and access track).
  • Mechanical and electrical works.
  • Live sewer works.
