This photograph of portacabins from the geotechnical company Structural Soils was taken by photographer Dave Wood at Bramley-Moore Dock earlier this week
Signs of preparatory investigation work beginning at Bramley-Moore Dock were spotted this week.

The first stage in any new development project involves site investigation of subsurface conditions, and this photograph of portakabins at Bramley-Moore Dock is a strong indication of tangible progress getting under way at the site.

Structural Soils Ltd is a UK geotechnical and geoenvironmental site investigation company established in 1964. The company undertakes contracts nationally and internationally through its offices in Bristol, Castleford, Glasgow and Hemel Hempstead.

The site investigation process involves drilling exploration boreholes and excavating trial pits to allow visual description and sampling of the subsurface soils. Samples are tested in a laboratory to determine soil strength and compressibility, and look for signs of any contamination present that may need to be cleaned-up. The exploration boreholes may be completed as monitoring wells to provide information on groundwater levels and possible contaminants.

The explorations are an essential first step that feeds the future structural design of the planned new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock and associated site development. It follows as a logic 'next step' after the club exchanged land-lease contracts with Peel Holdings last month to secure a 200-year lease on the site.

Interesting that they have offices in Castleford, the previous home of a certain Mr. Elstone.............

Fortunately as someone who works in construction i know this is a good sign. My understanding is that this would be simple viability study to know the feasibility of building on the site and to learn the potential costs.
