Thorpe Park - 5 year lake infill contract

The project involved moving 300,000m/3 of soil from outside of the permitted development area to form new flood plains for Chertsey. The material was moved using a fleet of 25 tonne articulated dump trucks and various excavators from 45 tonnes down to 7 tonnes. Material was also imported to make up the volume required to achieve the purpose of reclaiming 12 acres of new development land for more rides & attractions. The project lasted 5 years and included several culverts, bridges and a new causeway to the rear of the park. Within the flood plains shallow areas for wading birds were formed underwater along with bird watching viewing areas.
