Demolition of the existing Auction House building and associated hardstandings
Diversion of existing public surface water and combined sewer assets within the site
Site clearance of above ground obstructions and remnants of previous site development
Bulk earthworks to raise the site levels for flood protection and to provide platforms for future parcels

Delivery of a new flood relief culvert to pass overland flows through the raised site
