Wales & West Utilities is shortly starting work to upgrade gas pipes in the Valley View area of St. Keyne.

The works are essential to keep the gas flowing safely to heat and power local homes and businesses, keeping people warm for generations. The project will start on 14 July and, barring any engineering difficulties, it will finish by 19 September.

As part of the works, it has been agreed that traffic management will be in place, which includes:

  • Road closure from the junction of B3254 between Trussel Bridge and Valley View (14 July – 1 August)
  • We will be working in Valley View (14 July – 31 October)
  • Road closure on B3254 between Trussel Bridge and Valley View (28 July – 22 August)
  • Rolling two-way lights on B3254 between Valley View and Walles Bridge and on the B3254 between Trussel Bridge and Valley View (11 August – 19 September)

Wales & West Utilities Natalie Raphael is managing this work and said:

We know that working in areas like this is not ideal, but it is essential to make sure we keep the gas flowing to homes and businesses in the area, and to make sure the gas network is fit for the future. We’ll have a team of gas engineers on site throughout the project to make sure our work is completed as safely and as quickly as possible while keeping disruption to a minimum.

While most of the gas network is underground and out of sight, it plays a central role in the daily lives of people across Cornwall. Whether it’s heating your home, making the family dinner or having a hot bath, we understand how important it is for your gas supply to be safe and reliable and there when you need it.
