Description

The works comprise the construction of a new unreinforced concrete road to be built on the existing access track within the National Nature Reserve (NNR) at Pewsey, Wiltshire. The existing access track comprises of hard-core, which was laid over chalk sub grade about twenty to twenty five year ago. This hard-core track surface has suffered heavy scouring, erosion and wash out of fines, as a result of surface water run off occurring during heavy rainfall. Extending the concrete track by 100m would enable the control of run off and prevent these problems.

The existing hard-core will be graded out and re-used as a sub-base for the new concrete road.
