GENERAL PROJECT

Sherburn Upgrade

Starting in 2022, as part of a £12.9 million scheme, we will be carrying out essential work to improve the performance and flexibility of our wastewater network and wastewater treatment works in the Pittington and Sherburn areas of County Durham. The scheme will help to improve the water quality of the Coalford and Sherburn Becks, as well as the watercourses downstream. We are yet to confirm an exact date when the works will commence, however once we do we will contact you to ensure you’re kept informed and made aware of any possible disruption.

Update by Bethany Oakley

Good morning everyone,

I hope you’re all well.

I wanted to update you on the works as we are now very close to completion on the Sherburn side of the Treatment Works, we are currently waiting for the flows to be introduced from Pittington.

At Pittington, we are still proving the pumping station and the rising main before we can divert the flows to Sherburn.

Thank you for your patience whilst the Team are working hard to complete the project. If you have any questions you’d like to ask us regarding the works, please add a comment below and a member of the Project Team will respond as soon as they can.

Take care and enjoy the long weekend.

Bethany
