National Grid – Pentir Substation – Bangor
Project: planing and resurfacing of perimeter road inside the substation next to a newly installed electrified fence
Our remit of works was to resurface the surrounding access road to North Wales main substation. Being the first time that such work had been attempted whilst a main power station was fully operational, there was a great deal of focus by all parties on the practicalities of safely achieving the task, as it was considered to be a trial for future works to be carried out at similar stations across the UK.
