Business Club Ayrshire’s septic tank project is really starting to take shape. During week 1, the groundworks team used the plant and machinery to excavate the soil and create the new drainage channels in accordance with the plans. As with most projects, the team also had to overcome unforeseen issues, problem solving on the spot whilst overcoming the Ayrshire weather and soft conditions underfoot. Importantly for the project, all work was carried out without any downtime for the water treatment tank itself. Continuous operation of the plant means no disruption to the facility.

With the new drains in place, week 2 of the project sees the team backfilling the ground and tidying up the field. Being part of the estate and visible from the road, it’s important aesthetically that the works look good. The location is also home to a variety of wildlife and plays host to visits for educational and recreational purposes. Upon completion of the drainage, BCA will be taking delivery of tar scalping’s and carrying out repairs to the access road. The access road is a pivotal part of River Gardens operations, allowing passage for residents and staff as well as café customers. The project is on target to be completed this coming Saturday with BCA members from all backgrounds volunteering to learn some new skills, chip in with some much-needed labour and of course share some good times.
