Horsley Water Treatment Works Upgrade

A £46M project to upgrade Horsley WTW has now reached a key milestone. We have selected our partner Mott MacDonald Bentley (MMB), to upgrade the treatment works.

Update by Shafqat Akbar

Good afternoon,

After discussions with a very small number of customers who had spotted a rat in their gardens, we wanted to take precautionary steps to reassure our customers, and asked our rodent contractors to do a little bit of investigating.

They discovered that there were no signs of any rats at our site, and assured us that this not something that would cause a big problem for residents. The experts suggested that the rats could be attracted to bird feeders in gardens within the vicinity, so in this update we wanted to give you a little bit of friendly advice!

We have found some great suggestions from the experts at Birds Life. Here are their top tips on how to keep those unwanted guests out of your garden
