Investment plans for storm discharge sites

During the final two years of this investment period, we're spending £1.12 billion in our sewage treatment works (STW). This includes £650 million to improve resilience and provide extra capacity at many of our sites. Over the same period, we’ll spend £470 million on the wider sewer network.

This has been our largest ever upgrade of sewers and STWs, with plans to improve more than 250 of our sites.

Our ambitious draft plans for our next investment period (2025 – 2030) include £885 million for reducing storm overflows. This is part of a £6.6 billion programme to improve the environment.

You’ll also find details of when we expect to meet the government's new targets for storm discharges. To meet these targets, we’re planning for a £13.4 billion investment over the next 25 years. You’ll find more specific detail on our storm overflow reduction plan on our investing in river health page.

Please note that this list, and details within it, will change as projects progress. This page was last updated on 29 October 2024.
