Close shave
Digger operator saw a fragment of the warning tile in the bucket and stopped
A fibre service work crew were digging to locate a telephone cable duct and hit the ducts for an 11kV main supply cable. This was today (24th June) about 100 yards from my house. Less than 45 minutes after the call to National Grid an inspector was on site.
An update...14 months from when this started. Well we are nearly there. SSE has dug the trench, new cable in the duct and jointers coming Tuesday. No cost to me and no new easement signed. Finally I can get on and rebuild the wall without an 11kV cable in the way of my spade!!
'tis all done now. Cable moved, marked and protected. Now, about the wall. It's about a metre of soil and I think I'll put one of the thinner gabion baskets in there to make the corner. I have no wheelbarrow access so I think this will work ok. Any good suppliers out there please?
