Piling rigs information
The South Devon Link Road project has now reached the stage where we are able to mobilise piling
rigs at the junctions of St Luke’s Road and Aller Park along the A380. Two rigs are due on site the
week commencing 27th May. These rigs are being used to drill depths down to 10m to allow the
installation of concrete piles which will act as retaining walls.
The work is scheduled to take between four and six weeks to complete. During this time the
machinery will be in operation between 08.00 and 18.00. To minimise as much of the noise and
vibration as possible we are using the quieter type of equipment which drills rather than using a
hammering action.
Unfortunately this will not remove all of the noise, so we have leafleted the areas concerned
apologising to residents in advance for any remaining disturbance or inconvenience the drilling may
cause them, and asking for their patience while this work takes place.
Penn Inn bus stop
A recent incident took place involving the South West Water water main at Penn Inn which forced the
closure of the bus stop at Penn Inn roundabout, Torquay bound.
May Gurney and South West Water are continuing to work in the area to repair the main.
The bus stop is due to reopen w/c 10th June. In the meantime Galliford Try has erected signage
advising passengers of this temporary closure.
