Project Details
Project Overview
NRC WWS was called in to carry out an emergency drainage repair on a public highway in the heart of Spinningfields, part of our wider Commercial Drain Services in Manchester for high-traffic urban environments.
A partially collapsed 225mm surface water sewer was causing significant infiltration, with urgent intervention needed to prevent further structural failure. Operating in a high-traffic urban location, our team sourced all necessary materials within hours and deployed no-dig rehabilitation equipment to deliver a fast, effective, and non-disruptive repair.
The Challenge
- A 225mm surface water sewer had suffered a partial collapse, with infiltration risking further pipe degradation and surface failure.
- Located on a busy public highway in Spinningfields, the job demanded a trenchless solution to avoid disruption to traffic, local businesses, and pedestrians.
- Time was critical, both for public safety and to provide the client with urgent reassurance and visible action.
The Solution
- Rapid Deployment: we mobilised a drainage team and equipment within hours of being called.
- Material Sourcing at Speed, the same day to ensure no delay to the emergency works.
- No-Dig Repair Methods of structural patch drain relining, stabilising the pipe quickly and without excavation.
- On-Site Reassurance working closely with stakeholders to maintain safety, control disruption, and reassure the client throughout the process.
