Darlington Pipeline Project

DRASOL has extensive experience working in live traffic corridors, commercial and rail environments. We have evolved to provide safe work practices whilst maintaining high standards of quality and productivity for all types of civil projects.

The Darlington Pipeline required the installation of new 1200mm and 900mm diameter potable water mains, enabling the decommissioning of existing services to make way for the new lowered motorway.

Working under York Civil and SA Water, DRASOL crews carried out pipe laying, bedding and backfill operations, whilst providing site support to the third party welding crews.

Scope of works included:
• Bulk excavation and installation of shoring
• Pipe bedding & Level 1 Certified backfill
• Wastewater relocation
• Live service cutovers
• Access chambers, manholes and valve boxes

The urban nature of this site location required the infrastructure to be installed amongst multiple live services, necessitating a highly skilled workforce with the ability to problem solve under time- critical constraints and live traffic environments.
