End in sight for Bolton project
The last of the steelwork for a project in the northwest of England is expected to leave Waterford in the next couple of weeks.
The end is in sight for AJE’s involvement in the improvement works at the wastewater treatment plant in Bolton.
The AJE scope was to design, detail, fabricate, supply and install a new steel framework 134m long x 26m wide over the existing sludge plant lanes at the wastewater treatment works. The new structure will also incorporate raised walkways running the full length, consisting of a primary walkway with goal post support frames for mechanical installation and two tertiary walkways. There will be a further 12 walkways spanning the width.
The project for client JN Bentley for United Utilities has been led by Chris Roberts who said he was pleased to see the project coming to an end.
“It’s been an interesting project to be involved with due to its complexity and fast-tracked programme, which have managed to maintain. As we were working ahead of the fabrication schedule, we were also able to incorporate additional work packages for the client, without compromising the original completion date. I am delighted for the team that it has been a success and huge credit to the fabrication and installation teams. There are still a few smaller work scopes to complete such as handrailing and flooring but anticipate that we will be complete the project scope by the end of April, which was always the plan.”
