Residents in Treorchy may notice survey work being undertaken from next week, as part of the development of the major Treorchy Flood Alleviation Scheme.
The future multi-million pound programme will invest in more flood alleviation measures for the community – to improve local infrastructure and increase the level of flood protection.
Further information about the scheme is included in a previous news item from September 2024, when the Council secured £1 million Welsh Government funding to further develop the project.
From Monday, July 14, topographic surveys will be undertaken across the community as part of the ongoing Design and Development phase.
The Council has appointed John Vincent Surveys Ltd as the contractor for this information-gathering exercise, which is expected to cause no disruption to the community.
The surveys will cover a broad area of Treorchy – including High Street, Column Street, Glyncoli Road, Dumfries Street, Luton Street, Stuart Street, Cemetery Road, Bute Street, Cardiff Street, Herbert Street, Howard Street, Senghenydd Street, Horeb Street, Chapel Street, and Glyncoli Close.
As part of this work, the contractor will be present in the community for a number of weeks.
CCTV and drone surveys will also be undertaken at a future date, to continue to inform the current phase of work.
Thanks to the community in advance for your cooperation.
