Thursday 8th September 2016, 7.30pm - “Newark Waste and Water Improvement Project” – Severn Trent Water – NSK, Northern Road


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.
