Whitendale X Project is underway

Cheetham Hill Construction has been appointed as Principal Contractor on the Whitendale X Pipeline project near Dunsop Bridge, Lancashire for client United Utilities.

The design and build project involves the replacement of an existing concrete conduit used to convey raw water with a new 1.4km long, 800mm diameter pipeline. Works will also be undertaken to upgrade the existing aqueducts and the screening chamber on the pipeline.

The project is located in a remote, geotechnically and environmentally sensitive area.

Work commenced on site mid-February and is due for completion in September 2014.
