DF Tower Demolition, Felixstowe

The DF (Direction Finder) Tower on Landguard Point had been decommissioned for many years so was surplus to requirements.

Although it was still a junction for the met data between the Radar Tower and Met Tower and as it was located within the SSSI area the client was keen to see it removed as soon as possible. Amicus arranged for the diversion of the data and local power cables using the ducts that Amicus had laid previously. Once confirmation that the data was being received at the Harwich offices of HHA we arranged to take down the tower and demolish the foundations.

The ground was landscaped to match the surrounding SSSI area.
