Alconbury Weald Twin Pumped Rising Main — 7.46km HDD Pipeline

Barhale has been appointed prime contractor through the @one Alliance to deliver a 7,460m twin pumped rising main (400mm/315mm/250mm) serving the Alconbury Weald new town near Huntingdon — around 6,200 homes and 190,000m² of employment space — discharging into Huntingdon Water Recycling Centre. Horizontal directional drilling is used at 10 locations, including complex crossings beneath the East Coast Main Line and the River Great Ouse. A reminder that growth-driven schemes like this are a steady, non-regulatory source of AMP8 work for HDD and trenchless specialists as housing targets bite.
