Drainage works

Balancing pond area

Chalk surfacing as part of the base of the road has reached Icen Lane, where extensive drainage works are also underway. 

Drainage for the farm fields in the area is being put in place, and just north of Littlemoor the final earth excavation is ongoing to create balancing ponds.  These will capture water from the road surface, using reeds and other planting to settle out any sediment before the water enters the Broadwey stream.
