The team behind the major investment in
Newark’s sewerage systems will present the background to, and progress of, the
project, which will protect 1,000 customers from sewer flooding, with storage
capacity equivalent to 14 Olympic swimming pools being provided for during
severe rainfall.
A new trunk water main will provide potable water to Newark
with the capacity to support the 45% increase in population predicted over the
next 25 years.
A
tunnelled sewer will be driven 15m below the streets of Newark, big enough for
a transit van, outfalling to Crankley Point STW, north of the town. New sewers
and water mains will also be constructed across the town to provide the long
term solution Newark requires.
