Forming part of a larger Winchburgh Core Development Area, our work included the excavation and disposal of invasive species, re-profiling of waste and soils, followed by the placement of geosynthetic clay miners over the landfill, before capping with clean soils.
Additionally, extensive drainage works were completed with the installation of gas management apparatus and permanent flares to manage gas release from the landfill. Focusing on community benefit, over an acre of park was allocated to the Winchburgh Growers to create a communal planting space for growing vegetables locally.
The works were concluded with the installation of an extensive path network comprising 2.5km of running, walking, and fitness loops, a new biking track, and a large play area.
