…..and after all our efforts this has been dumped at the exact same spot within 6 hours!!!!!

Another day. Another load of fly tipping at Willow Hall, Peterborough. This is one of two dumps of household waste within site of each other. Grateful for the assistance from local landowners too.

Piling operations to repair damaged banks currently being undertaken before water levels are lifted to ‘summer levels’.

A new drainage channel created and adopted by the North Level at the West Side Marshes, Wisbech.

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

Well that’s a job very well done!!! Instillation of a twin penstock structure that will give the ability to divert water from one catchment to another during high water level events or in the event of a catastrophic failure of a pumping stations. #resilience

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

Good progress on our penstock structure this week with both sluice doors fitted and reinstatement on either side now commencing.

@YewHev Thank you. We will try and get this addressed today.

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

@cjd55yorkie Yes. This drain is in an area that has, until now, not benefited from an IDB drain in close proximity. This project will allow for more effective drainage in the West Side Marshes.

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

Always satisfying to cut a new drain!

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

Not bad for a days work!!!!

Some of our team taking part in PASMA training last week.

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

Replacing an old railway culvert that ran beneath the Spalding to March railway line. They certainly knew how to build things to last! Its demolition took some effort!

[North Level IDB @Northlevelidb]

Our operatives have wide skill set. Here they demonstrate the methods used to maintain where machines can’t access.

The refurbishment of our Denhams Pumping Station earlier this week.

An icy start to 2026! If you look closely you can see the Boards’ machine working in the distance.

Wasn’t all Christmas celebrations today! We had time to sign write our 6” and 8” pumps that we took delivery of earlier in the year.
