GMCA 824 Temporary Access Road at GMCA Waithlands

900mm culverted pipe is located beneath the former landfill area. The culvert consists of two sections running from south to north conveying surface water to the River Roch. The culvert is believed to be in poor condition and GMCA need to facilitate access for further condition assessments and investigations.
GMCA are proposing to construct a new access track within the waste mass of the historical landfill, to enable a jetvac tanker to access manhole reference MH6 at the foot of the landfill slope. The existing slope is approximately 1:4, but the road needs to be designed to 1:12, to enable vehicular access. Thus a new access track has been designed with a steepest gradient of 1:12 and a turning area at the base of the slope, to allow a rigid tanker to reverse back to MH6 and then drive forward back up the slope.
The slope is currently densely vegetated with semi mature trees.
