London’s ‘Super Sewer’ Channel Construction

Considered to be one of the most important civil engineering projects currently under construction, the joint venture The Ferrovial Agroman Laing O’Rourke has delivered two Damen Stan Pontoons for marine infrastructure construction.

Totaling more than 25 km in length, the tunnel will carry London’s sewage to the treatment works east of the city. The joint venture will construct the central section of the tunnel, which, measuring almost 13 km, is the longest section of the whole project. An estimated 1.6 million metric tons of tunnel spoil will be exported from the Kirtling Street site alone. As the project nears completion (expected in 2024), FLO will be required to remove all the temporary marine infrastructure. At this time, the joint venture will convert the pontoons back into crane barges once again.

The delivery of the pontoons make contributes to the smooth completion of the channel construction, the long-term channel construction is helpful to the sewage disposition and communication between the two countries.
