M62 HATMS upgrade
Working for BMjv K Rouse have been awarded works on the M62 HATMS (Highways Agency Traffic Management Scheme) upgrade.
The project scope is to install equipment that is intended to protect the back of slow moving traffic from rear end collisions / secondary accidents. This reduces the number of accidents which in turn reduces the cost of accidents and related delays thus improving the flow of traffic.
K Rouse's works on this scheme include earthworks and drainage, gabions and retaining structures, and preparing work areas for cross carriageway drilling.
Carrington Power Station
Working for Sisk K Rouse Civil Engineers have been awarded works on their Carrington Power Station project. When operational the plant will deliver 880 MW through Natural Gas Combined Cycle technology, which will be enough to power around 1,000,000 homes.
Our scope of works is the site wide infrastructure, including services, drainage, service roads, and concrete works. This complex scheme includes pipework up to 750mm dia at 4.0m deep as well as incorporating stainless steel, MDPE and HDPE runs.
Like all Power Station projects the Carrington works are highly complex and intense, involving a large interface with other trades. This is the type of demanding environment where K Rouse can show their commitment to excellence through efficient management, programming and the competency of personnel.

East Leeds Orbital Road
The east Leeds orbital route is a key part of the east Leeds extension infrastructure works programme. The project consists of a combination of elements to help improve and manage the existing and future traffic flows to the northeast of the city of Leeds. Forming a critical part of the wider transport improvements in the east Leeds extension, these include highways, capacity, and improvements to two junctions on sections of the existing outer ring road west of Red Hall at the A6120/Roundhay park lane junction and the A6120/A61 Harrogate Road junction.
The main east Leeds orbital route works stretches from the outer ring road at Red Hall round the east side of Leeds to Thorpe Park joining a new Manston Lane link road where it would connect into the existing highway infrastructure and link to the M1 motorway. This element of works will provide the capacity to support increased traffic from allocated development in the east Leeds extension, as well as relieving congestion on the existing network.
