Good afternoon.
Looking at my options to altering a proposed rear & side extension.
I want to increase the side extension to the rear to form a modified wrap around build.
The constraint is the position of the existing manhole which serves my own property + the 2 adjacent neighbors.
I would like some advice before spending further time and effort flogging a dead horse.
I will clearly need a build over agreement through a full application.
It appears that I could potentially build over the shared manhole providing an inspection chamber is installed via a y-junction - Technical guidance note 5.3/04 diagram 6.
Is my interpretation of the standard correct?
Are there any other requirements that need to be considered.
I have tried to approach the utilities company for some pre-application advice - computer says no.
Note: re-routing both neighbors foul is out the question at this stage.
Any constructive comments welcome!
