J Murphy & Sons has started growing its own vegetables on an allotment close to one of its construction sites in Bristol, with the produce going to the site canteen to help feed site workers.
The contractor is leading the construction of a new 6.5km relief sewer pipeline, connecting Bristol’s existing trunk sewer in Lawrence Weston to the Frome Valley relief sewer near Cribbs Causeway, which will direct waste more efficiently around North Bristol to the Wessex Water recycling centre in Avonmouth.
The majority of the sewer will be constructed by tunnelling underground using a tunnel boring machine, which will run underneath a number of schools and other sensitive buildings, including the M5 motorway and Network Rail’s Henbury Loop freight railway.
