Here is some further information about work on the Causey Mounth road at Hillside primary school … it should take place later this year.
Council officers tell me that within the above school project was the requirement to upgrade a section of the Causey Mounth road (the C34K) along the west of the school site.
“This work has been delayed due to various reasons and cannot now happen until after the existing overhead SSE lines have been grounded and removed around the end of September. The actual road works can then commence at the start of the October school holidays with completion by end of November.”
The council officer stressed that the whole programme is dependent on SSE diverting the electrical cables. So far there is no confirmed date.
The Causey Mounth road upgrading works have been deleted from the Farrans contract – the company which built the school – and will be undertaken by a separate contractor.
