Sorry some trees have gone


Sorry some trees have gone
But we'll be back to plant more.

So says the poster on the side of the United Utilities construction site at Bredbury.


United Utilities are building an underground storage tank at Bredbury which will be used during periods of heavy rainfall to hold storm water which can be pumped back into the sewer network when the storm subsides. A construction site and compound has been set up within the grounds of Morrisons supermarket car park and adjacent private land. The tank will be connected to the sewer pipes on Stockport West. The car parking spaces will be put back once the work is completed.

A contribution to signs, signs.

  1. They seem to be using that idea of storing storm water for slow release later here too on new development sites. Hopefully it will prevent some flooding. And it is god they are replacing the trees!

  3. The cranes are a familiar sight for me these days. At least trees will be replanted.
