Description of Works
The following provides a broad description of the likely nature of
activities for the different workstreams included in the construction of
DIRFT III.

Whilst the cut and fill is planned to achieve a balance, if there were to be
any surplus excavated material, disposal would be carried out by
appropriately licensed contractors to disposal sites licensed to accept
material of the quality excavated.
3.6
Table 3.1 below shows the anticipated overall volumes of cut and fill.

Existing services on the site will be surveyed, tested and diverted or cut
off as appropriate. Key and retained services will be temporarily
protected and weather proofed to ensure a safe clearance process.

A rail bridge will be constructed over the route of A5 to form part of the
new railway infrastructure.
3.14
The rail link will connect to the existing rail link at the northern end of
DIRFT II, before passing over the A5 via the new bridge and descending
into the new rail terminal at the heart of the DIRFT III site. Here the
railway will fan out to provide eight new rail sidings flanked by container
stacks and HGV roads. Rail mounted gantry crane rails will be installed
within the terminal and the gantry cranes will also be assembled on site.

One rail bridge crossing an internal road and 3 nos. bridleway bridges
will also be built.

The designation of all waste or other materials removed from the Site
would be notified to the relevant authority by the Contractor/Construction
Manager for approval. Loads would only be deposited at authorised
waste treatment and disposal sites.
5.9

All construction traffic entering and leaving the Site would be closely
controlled HGVs making deliveries to the site or removing demolition
material etc, would avoid prohibited routes which would have been
previously agreed with the local Highways Authority and other relevant
bodies.
