Our tunnel boring machine (TBM) Selina started her 5.5.km journey from Chambers Wharf in early 2021. In April 2022, Selina reached her final resting position at Abbey Mills Pumping Station, marking the end of tunneling for the super sewer.
The TBM will now be removed from the shaft and transported off site. A batching plant will be set up to supply concrete for the installation of a secondary lining inside the tunnel, which will protect against erosion.
The main period of 24 hour working will take place until Summer 2023.
You can learn more about our Abbey Mills site by watching our Tunnel Vision episode on YouTube.
