Movers Lane, Barking

    What are we doing?

    We are upgrading the gas pipes along Movers Lane and St John’s Road to ensure you continue to receive a reliable gas supply for many more years to come. Our aim is to replace all the metallic mains and service pipes in these locations. This means that we will need to excavate holes in the ground to access the gas pipes in order to inspect and replace them.

    Due to the nature of the work involved, we have planned to deliver it in a number of phases to maximise efficiency and minimise disruption.
