Ground investigation works can also help identify opportunities, for example they may highlight how some of the material could be reused or recycled to enhance the sustainability of the scheme.

[Guildford Flood Alleviation Scheme @GuildfordFS]

Surveys, including ground investigation works, are a completely normal part of a project like a flood alleviation scheme. The material extracted will help us understand what material is there and how best we could remove it.

[Guildford Flood Alleviation Scheme @GuildfordFS]

We are currently carrying out ground investigations in the scheme area. If you have any questions please contact us at [email protected]

[Environment AgencySE @EnvAgencySE]
