Thames Water to build first new sewage works since 2005
Planning permission was granted by Surrey County Council for a new Guildford Sewage Works. The new works will be built on brownfield land and replace the existing site which Guildford Borough Council will use for local housing.
This will be the first new sewage works to be built by Thames Water since Reading STW opened more than 14 years ago.
Facilitated by Guildford Borough Council the new state of the art facility will cater for a growing population and eradicate odour while improving the local environment.
Site of the new plant will have space for future expansion in line with modelled growth and the impact of climate change.
