Watercourse improvements to the rear lane of Brook Street Blaenrhondda

Residents may soon notice work activity at a culvert near Brook Street #Blaenrhondda – please note this is a pre-planned improvement scheme.

The Welsh Government funded work will begin from Monday, December 2, and is anticipated to last around two months.

The scheme will improve the watercourse to the rear lane of Brook Street (pictured), and will include channel widening and culvert inlet enhancements.

Detailed design work was undertaken in 2023/24, and the final scheme aims to increase the structure’s capacity while also improving flows of water.

The Council has appointed Hammond Esc Ltd as the contractor to deliver the work on site.

There will be minor access disruption to the rear lane during the work activity – the contractor will accommodate access to residents’ garages where needed.

The design and construction of this scheme has been funded by the Flood Risk Management Small Scale Works Programme by Welsh Government.

Thanks to the community in advance for your cooperation.
