Renewal of the Blackpool and Fleetwood tramway
Hauraton’s tough FASERFIX® TRAFFIC TRAM Point Inlet Gullies were specified for the project by WS Atkins because of their high hydraulic capacity,
ease of
installation and simple cleaning procedure. Each gully is firmly fixed to the side of the rail with one high tensile bolt. Once in position a 200mm x 20mm slot is cut in the bottom of the grooved tram rail which allows rainwater to enter the gully. Hauraton have gained extensive
Spaldings have introduced a self fusing compression tape to their workshop range. The high tensile silicone tape creates an enduring seal under extreme environmental conditions and is suitable for emergency repairs on electrical cables and leaking water pipes. Reliable and versatile the compression tape lends itself to a magnitude of tasks including damaged radiator hoses, exhaust pipes and air duct joints.

New legislation just passed parliament includes far-
reaching requirements for SUDS on future construction work carried out in England and Wales, and, as the most versatile of SUDS technique,
permeable
paving is set to become the norm for hard surfaces. Governmental planning policy guidance throughout the UK already requires use of SUDS such as concrete block permeable paving on all developments wherever possible - supported by Building Regulations, the Manual for Streets and Code for Sustainable Homes. But the new Flood and Water Management Act 2010, which received Royal Assent on 8 April, goes much further. It applies to any construction work that creates a building or other structure, including “anything that covers land (such as a patio or other surface)”, that will affect the ability of land to absorb rainwater. In other words: all new buildings, roads and other paving, whatever the size, type or scale of the project. It may well apply to work that does not need planning permission, or indeed Building Regulations

compliance, and, because the act is unconnected with planning law, current ‘permitted development’ rules do not provide exemption either. When the Act takes effect, applicable construction works cannot start until drainage systems have been approved in line with national standards for SUDS. The existing right to connect surface water drainage systems to public sewers will be restricted to those approved under the new SUDS regime.
All approved drainage
systems will be adopted, except those on single properties and public highways (adopted by Highways Authorities). It is expected that the national standards, which must be met to gain approval, will be
published by the government next year and will cover the design,
construction,
maintenance and operation of SUDS. In the case of concrete block permeable paving, detailed guidance has already been developed by Interpave on all these issues - based on long- term,
extensive international
experience - which should form the basis of national standards. A new edition of Interpave’s
definitive Understanding Permeable Paving guidance is now available from the Interpave information resource:

fissures rising all the way to the surface. Terrain Aeration have also relieved compaction on nine older greens, as and when the club has deemed it necessary.
