Repurposing of Grout Shafts

Summary

Crossrail investigated potential long term uses for the temporary grout shafts excavated to enable mitigation of ground settlement.  This micro-report and supporting documents explain the options that were researched, why they could not be implemented by Crossrail and recommends that future projects consider such repurposing at an early stage of project development.
