Compound cabins installed by 30 October; temporary access and bridge workfaces are being established

Participation source

Skinningrove's replacement crossing requires compound platforms and an alternative resident access route before bridge operations advance. The 30 October update reports cabins installed, with utility clearance and a piling mat among the next dependencies.

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Environment Agency
Delivery parties
BAM - construction and temporary access works
Contract route
Owner-led bridge replacement following planning permission in February 2026 and Full Business Case financial approval; mobilisation recorded from 12 August 2026.
Execution window
The resident notice schedules pole relocation from 18 November and road closure from 30 November 2026. Temporary access opening depends on the electricity-pole move.
Works package
A higher-deck replacement crossing between New Company Row and Zetland Row, temporary access through the glamping site, compound and piling work platforms.
Marine interfaces
The existing crossing uses manually closed flood gates and demountable parapets. The higher replacement deck is intended to preserve access above the defence level.
Commercial evidence boundary
Compound access, utility clearance and the Riverside piling platform release different operations. The installed compound stone cannot alone establish readiness for the bridge piling position or resident traffic diversion.
