In 2019 Tracey Concrete supplied Ward & Burke with bespoke wet cast jacking pipes for a major tunnelling project in Putney, London as part of Tideway major Super Sewer Project. 

Pipe Specification:

• Diameter: 2.286m 
• Length: 2.5m 
• Weight: 16t
• Bespoke: Steel Liner 
• Max jacking force: 1750T 
• Joint pressure: 10 Bar

The pipe-jacking machine is at Tideway’s site along Putney Embankment, where Tideway is ‘intercepting’ another CSO beneath Putney Bridge, which spills around 68,000m3 of raw sewage into the River Thames each year.

Project Challenges 

Manufacturing a highly technical bespoke wet cast jacking pipe to a tight delivery schedule.
Transporting the 16t jacking pipes to London’s city centre to meet offloading times.
Overcome by using the best external haulage companies & tracking systems.
