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.
You will find below plans and drawings for our planned work at Pittington Sewage Treatment Works as well as the planned route for the rising main and gravity sewer. Please note these plans are subject to change. We will keep you updated with regards to any amendments made to road and footpath closures.
