Removal of 12 Tonne Toilet Unit, For Bowmer and Kirkland / CCUK Ltd

June 2016

As part of the Network Rail redevelopment of the approach to Slough Station, Twenty Twelve Civils were asked to remove this mobile toilet unit from a site designated for new office accommodation.

Much of the basement for the new office block had already been constructed, leaving restricted access to remove the ‘stranded’ 12-tonne unit.

Twenty Twelve Civils were tasked with the disconnection and capping of all mains services, prior to removing the toilet and with the aid of a 120-tonne mobile crane, transferring the toilet unit onto a waiting low loader, taking the unit for refurbishment prior to re-siting.

This is typical of the many smaller projects undertaken by Twenty Twelve Civils requiring detailed planning and co-ordination to cause minimum disruption to the activities of others.
