Over the past few weeks, our ARP team has been working on the following:
- Cemetery Road re-opened on Friday, July 1, 2022.
- Removal of B27 decommissioned E5/E6 radiator fans is presently in progress with the removal of the fans and supporting structures being approximately 30% complete.
- B26 (E1-E4) Powerhouse mechanical demolition of engines and auxiliaries is approximately 70% complete.
- E2, E3, and E4 Engines have been disassembled and removed from B26 (E1-E4 Powerhouse) for disposal.
- B6 (Old Power Station) demolition is in progress with the B6 superstructure and OPS radiator fans removal approximately 40% completed.
- D2, D14 and D15 have been removed from B6 as demolition activities continue in the OPS area.
Upcoming works for the next 4 weeks are expected to include:
- B9 (injector workshop) relocation preparations are in progress. The existing injector workshop will be relocated to B26 to facilitate the demolition of B9.
- B7 (GEC building) demolition of switchgear and building will commence after B6 and B9’s demolition.
- B26 (E1-E4 Powerhouse) mechanical demolition of engines and auxiliaries is approximately 60% completed.
When demolition is occurring our neighbours and passersby may notice the following disturbances:
- Demolition noise from the construction equipment, which will be mitigated by limiting work to daytime production hours only (ie. 7:00am to 4:00pm)
- Localised airbourne dust, which will be mitigated by mist mechanisms and stockpile covers
- Increased truck traffic along Cemetery Road to remove building materials and engine components, which will be mitigated by flag men while trucks enter and exit the demolition site.
SAFETY & SIGNAGE
Project safety signage and project barriers are in place surrounding all demolition and work/project areas. All project areas are limited to the BELCO Serpentine Road campus only.
We ask our neighbours, passersby and campus visitors/guests to observe all safety signage and to not enter or attempt to enter any marked project areas in order to protect the safety of everyone.
