  Surveyors will be at Hemsleys Meadow and Finches Field for one day during the week of 27^th March to carry out the site assessment for the Underground Utility survey. There will be no impact on use for visitors to the fields.

  
  

  An Underground Utility survey seeks to identify the location of below ground services such as electricity and communications cables, gas and drainage pipes.

  Mid Sussex District Council are working with a Registered Practice of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors who will send one or two surveyors to scan the site. They will use a combination of Electromagnet tracing and Ground Penetrating Radar to identify the location and depth of underground services.

  The drawings they produce will be used by our landscape architects to make informed decisions when deciding where to position features requiring excavation. This will safeguard contractors and prevent disruption to utility services and delays in the project during construction.
