A former bus depot, soils and groundwater were impacted by refuelling and maintenance activities. Works involved the removal of below ground tanks, fuel lines and drainage. Hydrocarbon hot spots were identified and 1,500m3 of soils were remediated by bio-physical treatment. Free phase hydrocarbons were recovered by skimming. Japanese knotweed was eradicated by excavation and disposal, and the development further protected by the installation of root barriers.
