View information on location, availability and restrictions for all our parking spaces – or for total peace of mind, book one of our 3 reservable spaces close to Coppice Farm Primary School in advance. The joints were completed, the cables passed their rigorous tests and WPD attended a few days later to undertake the jointing works to make the Sub live.From car parks to driveways, on-street or off-street – we’ve got a huge selection of parking spaces within a short walk of Coppice Farm Primary School to choose from, so you can be sure you’re picking the most suitable space from all the available options. The cables were pulled in 2 sets of 170m pulls, leaving us 2 x LoveInk Straight joints to complete halfway between the POC and the Sub. When the plinth was formed, we delivered the Substation and gave the developer 4 weeks to complete the build in time for our Sub fit out, HV Cable Pull and WPD connection date. The road was completed in 3 stages so, rather than laying and cutting the 2 x new 300AI (3c) CNE HV cables in several places, creating unnecessary weak points on the network – we managed to obtain agreement from WPD and GTC (our network adopter) to allow us to duct the cable all the way from the POC at the site entrance, all the way to the substation. With the 800kva Substation being situated in the centre of the site, we were required to wait for the roads to be constructed by the developer before we could reach it.

After some lengthy discussions, and a full set of RAMS being drawn up and approved by STW we agreed the best way forward was to hand dig the section over the Aqueduct and for them to have a guide on site to advise us where required. Before even contemplating acquiring Road Opening Licenses for Whiteley and Peasehill Road, we had to get in touch with our good contacts at the STW Asset Protection team and decide on the best course of action. The DWA is one of STW’s most important assets, forming part of its strategic water grid it supplies more than 590,000 people with 200 million litres of treated water per day and it consists of 180km of large diameter pipeline. The hard part being we had to cross over the Derwent Valley Severn Trent Water Aqueduct known locally as the ‘Amber Valley Aqueduct’. The Gas point of connection was around 30m from site entrance and required IGL to dig & lay a new 250mm main to the existing Cadent 6” Cast Iron Main. Coppice Heights falls under the Amber Valley Borough Council, which nicely leads on to the first challenge we faced on this scheme.
The development can be reached within a 10-minute drive of the A38. Coppice Heights is situated 20 minutes’ drive north of Derby, in the town of Ripley.A fine example of this is the scheme mentioned above which is currently on going – known locally as ‘Coppice Heights’ our client is building 400 new homes where IGL are providing the Water, Gas & Electric mains for the scheme. Infrastructure Gateway over the last five years has branched into full Multi-Utility Infrastructure in order to offer a streamlined approach that supplies the customer with excellent service from initial enquiry down to the final connection.
