Dear Resident,
As we kick off a new year on the project, we continue to make great progress on-site at Bermondsey. We are working hard to minimise disruption to our neighbours and appreciate your patience as we continue work to deliver the new homes, shops, and public spaces for Bermondsey.
CONSTRUCTION QUERIES
Ana is our dedicated community liaison officer who some of you will have met at residents’ meetings. Should you have any construction related questions, concerns or issues you’d like to discuss please talk to her at the resident meeting or reach out using the contact details below:
Email: ana.santos@munnellys.com Telephone: 07907 725 882
You are also invited to join us in person for our next residents’ construction update meeting at 9:30am on Thursday 20th February 2025. Please contact us using the details above to confirm attendance.
We continue to actively monitor construction vehicle movements to ensure the safety of all road users, including all measures we previously put in place to minimise the transfer of dust and mud to the surrounding roads. Daily noise and vibration readings continue to be taken and monitored to ensure environmental control limits are adhered to.
CONSTRUCTION WORKING HOURS
We are committed to being a considerate neighbour and will be working hard to ensure that any disruption caused by our construction work is kept to a minimum. Our usual construction working hours are as follows:
8am to 6pm, Weekdays
9am to 2pm, Saturdays
We have a further tower crane erection planned for 8th / 9th February on Block F, this will involve out of hours working for Health and Safety Reasons. We will continue to endeavour to provide advanced notice of any upcoming out of hours works if required in the future.
UPCOMING WORKS
In order to continue progress on site and install vital infrastructure to service the future homes, there are some upcoming activities that may impact local traffic.
We will have been coordinating with Thames Water to ensure collaborative working to minimise local highways disruption. We continue to work closely with UK Power Solutions delivering power to our site and with UK Power Networks who are due to complete unrelated works in the surrounding area over the next period.
