As though on cue withing a hour or two of posting the lack of activity in the Little Ealing Lane big hole some sort of cable pulling gear arrived - perhaps SSE management and PR are still monitoring Ealing Today and noted this.
However, it is going to get worse. The big hole seems to be part of the cable pulling and there will need to be another one between the Little Ealing Hole and and substation at Elderberry Road on Popes Lane. The reason for this is that the cable that they are going to pull comes in 500 metre rolls and the distance between the Little Ealing Lane hole and the substation on Elderberry Road is 1100 to 1200 metres. This means that there will need to be three lengths of cable requiring a further TWO holes between Little Ealing Lane and Elderberry Road along the Popes Lane on that side of the road alone. As the same process will need to be repeated on the other side of the road this would mean a matching hole on the other side of the road on Little Ealing Lane tot he existing one as there is a second set of ducts there. This means five more holes of this size between Little Ealing Lane and Elderberry Road - two more on the south side and three on the north side. It would be nice to be proved wrong by SSE, however, we appear to be in for some more months of hell. Expect a matching hole on Popes Lane somewhere near Travis Perkins sometime soon.
What is even worse is that each of this holes will be dug in the same place as the previouos excavations diggind down to the installed ducts - something that could have been done when the ducts were put in instead or re-digging.
