Went out towards Halfway the other day and noticed on the land boundaried by the above they are starting to build. The sign at the supertram end says land contaminated, by what?
All I have ever seen is grass.

The land you are talking about used to be a sand quarry, then a landfill site, and it seems as if they have found some contaminated waste that needs specialised handling.........just the place to build a school!

the land itself is not actually "contaminated", the pilings & drilling r being carried out by a conatmination specialist company.
the site will have potential build ups of gas from the waste.

Yep Willman, that's what my hubby said (he deals with them) and when I said about the word 'contamination' being on the sign he said "It says Mars Bars on the side of a bus but it doesn't mean it sell's em"....... fair comment!
