Leeds / Bradford Airport

VPH Earthworks Ltd was the main earthworks contractor for BCE Northern Ltd (Principal Contractor) on the Project for Leeds Bradford Airport (The Client) for a new car parking extension. The works had to be undertaken during the winter months for completion in the spring of this year. As can be seen from the photographs, we worked even during the snow and completed the project on time for the client. The works had been adjacent to the airport runway, and therefore health and safety was a major factor in undertaking the works safely, with the works being completed with no incidents.

The works involved :

  • Site strip of vegetation & topsoil (removed off site)
  • Excavate to reduced level & compact formation
  • Fill using site material
  • Excavate and remove surplus material off site for attenuation tank and compact formation
  • Backfill to attenuation tank
  • Excavate and compact for roads
  • Fill and compact type 1 to roads
  • Install impervious Visqueen, geogrid and cover with 4 -20mm aggregate to parking area (for Bodpave)
  • Grade subsoil ready for topsoiling
