We have been approached by solicitors representing Network Rail wanting to undertake 10 boreholes in various fields close to nearby railways. There are proposals due out in a few months time laying out Network rails proposals for rail upgrades around Ely, Cambs.
The solicitors seem to have a rather aggressive attitude saying that if we do not comply with their requests they will issue notice and do it anyway! They have sent us a licence on Wednesday this week, expecting it to be signed today with works starting next Tuesday, rather rushed you would say!
Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Does anyone have any idea on compensation per borehole? They will also have to travel through standing crops to access other sites as they can not wait until after harvest.
We are most unhappy with their intentions to undertake these boreholes as we fear what Network Rails proposals may be in the coming months.
Thanks
