Net zero pledge work affecting residents

The Opus Group has been working on Alsager paths since April. Residents have expressed their frustration at the disruption the work has caused.

One resident said: “They came and dug up our front lawn.”

Another resident said workers asked permission to enter his house and dig up his driveway. He declined the request and said he had no interest in purchasing an electric vehicle.

The Opus Group is working on behalf of Scottish Power Energy Networks. Over thirty roads have been affected.

Work has involved upgrading the Electrical Mains and de-looping customer’s properties. This will fulfil Scottish Power’s net zero pledge to the town. 

While paths and driveways have been dug up, roads have largely remained open.

The following streets have been affected:

  • Pikemere Road
  • Heath End Road
  • Hassall Road
  • Greenway
  • Queensway
  • Bedford Grove
  • College Road
  • Harpur Crescent
  • Oakley Drive
