Work description
STFC Boulby lab operates at Boulby mine - a working Polyhalite and Salt Mine run by ICL-UK in the North East of England. This optical fibre installation work will install a secondary cable in the main mine shaft and two further cables underground, one attached to the roof of the mine tunnel between the existing laboratory and the new site and the second in a channel in the floor of the mine tunnel between the two locations. This will provide a diverse network with built in redundancy should one cable be damaged.
