After 34 months
of hard work, blood, sweat and tears, we have finally doneæit.æ
Darren & Kaye have secured and purchased the freehold interestæof
the 55 acre site at Tidenham Quarry, home of the National Divingæ&
Activity Centre.æ
This is great
news for us all, because now we can start work on two construction
projects that have been in the pipeline for sometime.
The first major project
is a new and improved entrance to the NDAC site. Since obtaining
full detailed planning permisssion from the Forest of Dean District
Council; detailed technical approval has commencedæbetween our
contractors and Gloucestershire County Council Highways Department.
Together they are working towards an improved new site entrance
design.æ The build time for these detailed works will take around
48 weeks from start to finish, and they are expected to start
in January 2008.æ
The second construction
project is to improve the bumpy road to the turning circle by
the pontoons. As regular customers, who have been bounced down
it, are aware, the road to the turning circle has been in a state
of disrepair for some time now.
We would like to thank
all our loyal customers and members who have put up with the off-road
journey to the pontoon - but are very pleased to announce that
this will soon be coming to an end. Improvement works will commence
on the road mid January 2008 and it is anticipated that they will
take around 7 - 10 days to complete (weather depending).
