Tunnelling work is well under way at Chester Northgate development. - September 9, 2021
The new drainage will result in significant environmental protections and benefits. It will reduce flooding and drain bursts in the city centre; reduce the volume of water requiring sewage treatment; help cut energy use; and reduce untreated sewage discharges during heavy rainfall

Betts Hydro have provided services for Cheshire West and Cheshire Council on their Northgate development. The complex and challenging task of tunnelling under the city centre has now been completed. The new drain is a major future-proof environmental investment by Cheshire West and Chester Council in the city’s recovery from the pandemic, and an essential requirement ahead of major regeneration schemes, including the Northgate development currently under construction and set to open in the Autumn.
