Barn Elms

Introduction

Site information paper

Currently, untreated sewage regularly overflows into the River Thames from Londons Victorian sewerage system via combined sewer overflows (CSOs). The proposed Thames Tunnel would intercept these overflows through the use of a new storage and transfer tunnel, which would link west London and Abbey Mills Pumping Station. The sewage flow would then be transferred to Beckton Sewage Treatment Works via the Lee Tunnel. The reduction in untreated sewage entering the River Thames would bring long-term benefits for the environment and users of the River Thames. In order to deliver the project we need a number of sites along the route and this document identifies our current preferred site at Barn Elms.

Key facts
Local authority: CSO name: CSO spill volume in an average year: Site type: Duration of main construction works: Richmond upon Thames West Putney Storm Relief 34,000m (equivalent to approximately 14 Olympic swimming pools) CSO site Approximately two and a half years.

Barn Elms
Section 1: Introduction and site information
We are proposing to use the south eastern corner of the Barn Elms Schools Sports Centre for this construction work and to accommodate permanent structures required to operate the main tunnel. The site would be used to connect the existing local CSO, known as the West Putney Storm Relief, to the main tunnel. The location of the site is shown in Figure 1A. The Thames Path and River Thames are located to the east of the site. To the north are some of the Barn Elms Schools Sports Centre pitches and facilities. Putney Lower Common is located to the southwest. At the most southerly point of the site are Beverley Brook and the Beverley Brook footpath, which separate the London Boroughs of Richmond upon Thames and Wandsworth in this location. The site is adjacent to the Putney Embankment Conservation Area. The site also includes a maintenance site access road that would link to Queen Elizabeth Walk. This site information paper sets out our proposals at Barn Elms. We have also produced project information papers, which cover overarching topics relating to the project. Where we consider that a project information paper is particularly relevant, we have highlighted this in a related documents box. At the end of this site information paper is a list of other documents, which may be of interest and a glossary of terms.

How we chose this site


Main tunnel
What we proposed at phase one consultation
Through our site selection process, we identified that a main tunnel drive site was required between Hammersmith Bridge and Albert Bridge. At phase one consultation, which was held between September 2010 and January 2011, Barn Elms was identified as being appropriate for this purpose and was presented as our preferred site. We assessed other sites but only Barn Elms made it through to the shortlist stage of the site selection process.

What we are proposing at phase two consultation


Since January 2011, we have considered the comments from phase one consultation, feedback from ongoing engagement and new information; and undertaken further technical work. As a result, we have re-assessed potential main tunnel sites and our tunnelling strategy for the main tunnel. We have now identified Carnwath Road Riverside as the most suitable site. Therefore Barn Elms is no longer our preferred site for a main tunnel drive site.

CSO
What we proposed at phase one consultation
Through our site selection process, we identified four possible shortlisted sites to intercept the West Putney Storm Relief CSO. At phase one consultation, which was held between September 2010 and January 2011, we presented these sites: Foreshore, adjacent to Barn Elms Boat Repair Yard, off Putney Embankment Leaders Gardens, Putney Embankment Barn Elms. Barn Elms was identified as our preferred site at phase one consultation. The size of the site required at Barn Elms is significantly smaller than presented at phase one consultation, since we only need a site to intercept the CSO in this location. This means that the temporary effects on the playing fields would be reduced. We would no longer need to relocate the Scout Hut or divert the Thames Path. We would not need to construct a new temporary jetty and mooring structures, since the reduction in excavated material would not justify the associated costs and disruption.

What we are proposing at phase two consultation


We have considered the comments from phase one consultation, feedback from ongoing engagement and new information; and undertaken further technical work. We still consider that Barn Elms should remain our preferred site to intercept the West Putney Storm Relief CSO. The site is located in the southern corner of Barn Elms, which is a good location because we can directly intercept the CSO. We also avoid having to construct pipes beneath the high pressure gas main and reduce encroachment into the playing fields.

Section 2: Construction
Construction activities
Construction activities are required to intercept the CSO. We would construct an interception chamber to intercept the CSO. A connection culvert would link the interception chamber to a drop shaft (approximately 34m deep), through which flows would pass down to a short connection tunnel. This would join to the main tunnel. Figure 2A illustrates the below ground infrastructure proposed. These activities would take place within the area indicated by the red line in Figure 1A, in five main phases, lasting approximately two and a half years in total. The main construction activities associated with these phases are set out in Table 2.1.

Barn Elms
Site layout and construction phases
Figures 2C and 2D show how the site might be laid out during the construction phases, which are set out in Table 2.1 and Figure 2B. These layouts have been informed by the size of the infrastructure proposed, the construction methods required and the location of neighbouring buildings and structures. They have also been developed to minimise effects on the local community and environment. Particular factors at this site that have influenced the layout are as follows: Owing to the change in function of the site since phase one consultation from a main drive to a CSO interception site, the location of the construction site is now in the south of the previous Barn Elms site, adjacent to the Beverley Brook watercourse. This means that the site is smaller and the potential effect on the sports pitches has been confined to a temporary loss during construction. Access to and construction on the foreshore of the River Thames are no longer required, eliminating the potential effect on river navigation and river users; and avoiding the need to relocate the Scout Hut or divert the Thames Path. At phase one consultation, two different options for site access were proposed; a third option was considered following feedback from phase one consultation. Where possible, we have discussed these options with relevant stakeholders and the option to construct a temporary access road from Rocks Lane (A306) along the northern side of the Beverley Brook watercourse is preferred. This option reduces the effect on common land, avoids Queen Elizabeth Walk, is considered safer as there would be no interaction with users or pitches and does not interfere significantly with public access routes. The site layouts are indicative only. The contractor may arrange the site in a different way, depending on the chosen construction methods, provided that any environmental effects are appropriately managed, and that the main construction activities are undertaken within the red line shown in Figure 1A.

Additional works and activities
The main construction activities at this site are set out in Table 2.1.

The existing southern pavilion changing rooms are on the alignment of the construction site access road. There is an existing planning permission for the demolition and redevelopment of the southern pavilion changing rooms, which has yet to be taken forward. If this planning permission is not implemented, as part of our works at this site we would need to relocate/replace the southern pavilion changing rooms. Replacement/relocated changing rooms would be provided outside of the area indicated by the red line in Figure 1A, in a location agreed with London Borough of Wandsworth and the Barn Elms Sports Trust. We expect to connect to utilities either from Rocks Lane (A306) or from the Thames Path.

Construction transport and access


We propose to transport materials to and from the site by road. We have considered the use of the River Thames to transport materials to and from this site. However, we consider that the cost and disruption to the Thames Path and recreational boating activities associated with the construction of a temporary jetty and mooring structures are not justified, given the need to move relatively small volumes of material from this site. Table 2.3 sets out the anticipated average daily number of lorries visiting (ie travelling to and from) the site during the peak months of each phase. Construction traffic would access the site from Upper Richmond Road (A205), travelling along Rocks Lane (A306) and turning right into the site through an existing entrance that would need to be modified. A temporary road would be constructed along the northern side of the Beverley Brook, following the southern edge of Barn Elms Playing Fields and the Barn Elms Schools Sports Centre. Traffic would leave the site via the same route. This access route is shown on Figure 2E. Beyond this, construction traffic would use the major road network to get to and from its final destination. At phase one consultation we presented two options to access the site, one off Rocks Lane (A306) and one via Queen Elizabeth Walk by extending an access route between the Boat House Facility and the proposed site. The Rocks Lane (A306) access was chosen based on feedback during phase one consultation and because this access would provide separation between construction traffic and users of Queen Elizabeth Walk, and the adjacent facilities which it serves. Following phase one consultation a third access route off Lower Richmond Road via Putney Lower Common was considered. This route was ruled out due to loss of trees, effect of crossing the Beverley Brook, effect on common land, diversion of a number of footpaths and the increased effect on nearby residents. We may need to relocate the southbound Ranelagh Avenue bus stop on Rocks Lane (A306) for the duration of the works. We may also need to suspend or relocate some on-street parking on Rocks Lane (A306) opposite the site entrance. Based on our current design, we do not anticipate that any footpath or road diversions or junction changes would be required.

Management of construction works


Our construction works would be managed in accordance with an agreed Code of construction practice (CoCP). For phase two consultation, we have produced a draft CoCP Part A: General requirements, informed by CoCPs from other major construction projects in London and consultation with the local authorities. Through the environmental impact assessment process, schemewide principles to address potential effects on the local environment have been identified and integrated into the design. The CoCP Part A sets out scheme-wide control measures that would be used to minimise potential effects during the construction process. Table 2.4 sets out what we consider to be the key issues for this site during construction, and how we are currently proposing to address them.

Issue
Possible relocation of the Scout Hut, which is located to the east of the site, between the playing fields and the River Thames.

Our response
Since phase one consultation, the decision to use Barn Elms as a CSO-only site means that the scout hut would not be directly affected. If necessary, suitable mitigation measures would be implemented to reduce any possible construction effects on the Scout hut. Since phase one consultation, the decision to use Barn Elms as a CSO-only site means that the potential effect on sports pitches has been confined to a temporary loss during construction. We are currently investigating temporary replacement options in the local area. It is not anticipated that there would be any permanent loss of sports pitches. There is an existing planning permission for the demolition and redevelopment of the southern pavilion changing rooms, which has yet to be taken forward. If this planning permission is not implemented, as part of our works at this site we would need to relocate/replace the southern pavilion changing rooms. We would discuss any necessary alternative arrangements with the local authority and Barn Elms Sports Trust. Only a very small number of trees would need to be removed. The route of the access road has sought to minimise the effect on existing trees, vegetation and the river bank as far as possible, in combination with careful root protection, pollarding and trimming methods. Access to the riverside is not required at this site; the Thames Path would not therefore be affected in this location. Since phase one consultation, the decision to use Barn Elms as a CSO-only site means that construction on the foreshore of the River Thames is no longer required. Consequently, our works would have no effect on the River Thames. The contractor would be required to implement noise and vibration control measures at the worksite, which will be set out in the CoCP. Continuous tunnelling would only be undertaken for a short period of time to construct a small connection tunnel from the drop shaft to the main tunnel.

Issue
Possible effects on local air quality and dust nuisance in neighbouring areas. Possible effects of construction activities on the Beverley Brook Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC).

Our response
Preliminary findings indicate that while there is the potential for dust nuisance effects, there are unlikely to be any significant local air quality effects at any of the sites. The contractor would put in place air and dust control measures at the worksite, which will be set out in the CoCP. Ecological surveys are being undertaken to identify possible effects arising from construction activities and ensure that they are carefully located and managed to minimise direct effects on local wildlife. The contractor would put in place various control measures at the worksite to minimise these effects, as far as possible. These will be set out in the CoCP.

Barn Elms
Section 3: Future use
This section describes the site after the completion of the construction work, ie when the main tunnel is in use the operational phase. Our permanent works need to incorporate functional elements, which are required for the operation of the tunnel. These include: Underground structures including: a CSO drop shaft with an internal diameter of approximately six metre connection tunnel to the main tunnel, connection culvert, interception chamber, valve chamber and a passive filter chamber. An above ground structure over the CSO drop shaft to provide access into the shaft. An above ground structure incorporating an electrical and control kiosk, access to the interception chamber and a ventilation column. Maintenance vehicle access. Table 3.1 sets out the site specific issues that have influenced our permanent design proposals and how we have addressed them in our proposed design.

Design
Since phase one consultation we have progressed the design for the permanent use and appearance of the structures at Barn Elms. The design of the permanent proposals follows our scheme-wide principles and takes into account comments made and ongoing engagement with the London Borough of Wandsworth and other technical consultees.

18

Future use

Issue

Our response
The permanent works have been located close to the existing CSO at its interception point to avoid the permanent loss of any sports pitches.

Preserving existing sports Since phase one consultation we have significantly reduced the potential effect on pitches, facilities and Metropolitan Open Land by minimising the footprint of the permanent works. infrastructure. To avoid disturbance of the high pressure gas main to the north of the site, the permanent works have been located a suitable distance away. The permanent works would be enclosed by two separate structures that we are considering cladding with habitat walls. In combination with additional planting, this would aim to increase biodiversity and reduce visual effects by blending with the landscape through good design. A free standing ventilation column is not proposed at this site. All ventilation equipment is enclosed within the two structures. Ecological surveys are being undertaken to identify specific species and types of flora and fauna that may be affected by the permanent works. We are also considering various landscape design features for wildlife, including habitat walls for both structures on site, dense border vegetation and wild flower planting. The permanent access road would be composed of a reinforced concrete material that allows grass to grow through to retain the ecological value and visual amenity of the site.

Operation and maintenance
Once the tunnel is operational, we would need access to the site occasionally for inspection and maintenance purposes. We expect to visit the site approximately once every three to six months to carry out inspections and maintenance of the ventilation and below ground equipment. This is likely to involve a visit by staff in a small van, and may take several hours. Once every ten years, we expect to carry out a major internal inspection of the tunnel and underground structures. This is likely to involve a small team of inspection staff, a small team of support crew and two mobile cranes to lower the team into the shaft. This is likely to take several days and would require temporary fencing around the shaft for safety and security while the inspection takes place. We may also need to make visits to the site for unplanned maintenance or repairs, for example, if there is a blockage or equipment failure. This may require the use of mobile cranes and vans. Permanent vehicular access would be from Queen Elizabeth Walk. We would extend the existing permanent access route south of the boat house facilities with a reinforced ground material that allows grass to grow through. This has been chosen to minimise the visual effect on Barn Elms Schools Sports Centre.

Management of operational effects


We have undertaken technical work, including stakeholder engagement, to assess and identify the key issues associated with this site once it is operational. Table 3.2 summarises these issues and how we are currently proposing to address them.

24

Future use

Issue
Possible odour effects during the operation of the tunnel.

Our response
Odour effects at this site are expected to be negligible because we have developed an Air management plan to minimise possible odour and air quality effects arising from the operation of the tunnel. The technology we are proposing to use at this site includes the use of passive, below ground, carbon filters that will remove possible odour before air leaves the ventilation equipment. Permanent access would be required for maintenance and servicing purposes to the shaft and ventilation equipment. Any planned maintenance visits would be undertaken during normal working hours and all visits managed to avoid disruption to local residents, businesses and users of affected public areas as far as possible.

Disturbance from future maintenance access.
