On Friday the 14th of March George Cross (Director RPFL), Mo Bowyer (Regatta Point resident), Malcolm Wood (St. George’s Land Director) and Sean Chappell (St. George’s Snr. Construction Manager) held one of their regular liaison meetings – the aim of which is for Regatta Point to raise any issues with the development next door and for St George’s to keep us abreast with progress.

The following are highlights of the meeting:

• Excavations for groundwork on block next to RP are due to start soon and will require the temporary closure of the footpath at times.  The white portacabins will be removed.
• Pile driving will cause vibrations, which are disturbing, but should not cause damage. 
• Prior to this soil will be removed for the excavations – water should be sprayed on during this time to minimise dust.  
• Co-ordination between StG and RPFL will be arranged via our surveyors in order to facilitate the work that is to be carried out on the Eastern wall of Regatta Point.
• StG have proposed installing gates at either end of the public pathway along the Eastern wall that would be locked at night.  St George’s have now formally submitted the proposal with Hounslow Council with the support of Regatta Point.
• The Fullers pub will be now opening in mid-Summer.
• Entire development not expected to finish until 2016.
• Next meeting 08:30 on Friday 11th April 2014.
