Dear Resident

Bury Metrolink line Out of hours work at Heaton Park Metrolink stop
We are currently undertaking improvement works on the Metrolink stops on the Bury line. Over the course of the next few weeks we will need to carry out essential work at Heaton Park Metrolink stop outside our normal hours of construction. For safety reasons, this work can only be done while the tram line is closed. Work will take place between 11pm and 6am from Saturday 22nd October until Friday 28th October 2011. Some of our overnight work will require low level lighting and involve use of construction tools and vehicles. These works will inevitably cause some noise. We will aim to keep any disturbance to a minimum. Measures will be adopted to reduce noise wherever possible, for example, by the type of generators that are used, by switching off machinery when it is not in use and by completing any noisy work as quickly as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. Please bear with us while we improve your Metrolink stop. Managing construction work Please note that construction sites are dangerous places sites are fenced in for the protection of the public. For you own safety, please do not try to access the site.
