A special piece of equipment called a mole will be used to take a gas main under the river Windrush in Witney.
It will drill a borehole through which the main can be pulled, without having to divert the river. Transco, the gas main company, have outlined details of the operation as they plan to replace an 200mm iron pipe under Langel Common.
