Overview

Hope and Clay undertook critical flood alleviation schemes across three separate sites in Thatcham. These works were part of a broader initiative to implement sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS) to effectively manage rainwater and mitigate flooding risks in the area.

Project Scope

The detailed scope of works included:

  • Earthworks: Extensive excavation and grading to shape the land for optimal water flow and retention.

  • Attenuation Basins: Construction of basins to collect and temporarily store stormwater, reducing the risk of flooding downstream.

  • Drainage Installation: Comprehensive drainage works to improve water management and flow within the sites.

  • Hardscaping Works: Installation of durable surfaces and structural elements to support the flood alleviation infrastructure.

  • Pipeline Protection: Concrete protection works over an existing Exolum pipeline to ensure the safety and integrity of critical infrastructure during and after the project.

This project highlights Hope and Clay’s expertise in delivering sustainable flood management solutions that align with environmental and community needs.
