Penn Road Sinkhole

In the past week there has been additional unfortunate conditions at the site, and this has included additional water leaks, which has compromised the site further. Buckinghamshire Council teams are working with Affinity Water and specialist contractors and designers to resolve the issue as soon as possible. The additional water leaks and further compromises have however meant that the works completion date has been delayed.

Traffic management will be on site next week and a further site meeting will be held early next week with the council's specialist geologists and contractors to agree the final next stages to reopen the area fully.
