• Vehicles use permitted routes during their journey to and from sites
• Vehicles prioritise main roads where possible
• There are times we need to deliver large loads overnight or early
morning for safety
• Forecasts above are 2-way movements to and from our worksites based
on calculations in the HS2 Act
• We always aim to minimise the number of construction vehicles by re-
using excavated materials on site, carefully planning our logistics and
using best practicable methods for our works
• We are continually reviewing our practices to reduce the impacts of our
works
04/03/2021 26Haul road Hampstead Road access • A haul road with access on/off Hampstead Road will help reduce HS2 construction traffic on residential streets • The haul road will change location over time to enable vehicles to continue using it whilst safely avoiding large-scale machinery and construction in our narrow worksite • We will use the haul road as often as possible, however there will be periods where there is insufficient space to keep it in use • When we cannot use the haul road, we will use approved lorry routes to access our worksite via Stanhope Street gate. • Haul road will be in use from end of Summer 2021 as a throughfare for site traffic 04/03/2021 27
Survey's update 04/03/2021 28
Pre-condition surveys
• Pre-condition surveys are visual inspections by an independent accredited surveyor to capture the existing condition of a proper ty
• Required for all properties along the HS2 route within the zone for predicted ground movement of more than 1mm for listed buildings
and more than 10mm for non-listed buildings
• These are the same as the surveys referred to in the C3 Information Paper regarding Settlement Deeds (but if completed earlier than the 3-6
months immediately before excavation works, we may need to refresh them, by agreement)
• In the case of any future claims for damage, the survey will provide an independent baseline record against which to compare condition
before and after our works – this will assist both parties by enabling a quicker assessment and claims process by reducing the need to prove
the damage was not pre-existing
• Copies of the report will be available on request and are normally issued just to property owners but will also be provided to long-term
leaseholders if requested
What is covered
• Walls and floors
o Cracks, sign of movement, vibration, deformation, damage and displacement to the property structure and fabric
o Bulges, include size and location
o Water damage or ingress
o Internal and external finishes
• Tree positions, types and diameters
04/03/2021 29COVID - 19
We are continually reviewing the works of our surveying team in line with Government and Public Health England (PHE) advice on dealing with
COVID-19.
The Government’s current Covid-19 strategy makes clear that construction activity can continue as long as it complies with this guidance and
those working in construction have been actively encouraged to go to work.
Several measures will be in place to protect residents and members of our surveying team. These will at least include
• when making contact we will confirm with you whether you are happy for us to attend and that that there are no health issues with people
that live in your home. We will also confirm that there are no health issues within our team
• we will keep staff numbers to a minimum within your property
• before entering any property, we will sanitise our hands and any equipment and we will wear appropriate personal protective equipment
• where possible, windows will be opened while our surveyors are working for better ventilation
• all surveyors will receive weekly COVID-19 testing
• all surveyors will carry laser thermometers and check their temperature before entering each property
• we will notify residents should any of our surveyors test positive within two weeks of entering their property
