en.Wedoany.com Reported - Northumbrian Water is advancing a water supply infrastructure upgrade project, laying a new 6.6-kilometer water main in the rural areas of Northumberland. The pipeline will extend from Hedley Reservoir to Wandi Law and North Charlton Reservoir, aiming to enhance the resilience of the water supply network in the surrounding region.

The new pipeline will improve water supply reliability and quality for customers in Northumberland. The increased network capacity will help serve users more stably during peak water demand periods, reducing the need for emergency water deliveries during summer peak hours. This project is part of the company's long-term investment plan to modernize the region's water supply infrastructure.

Phase one site construction has commenced and is expected to be completed by summer 2027. The work is being carried out by United Infrastructure, Northumbrian Water's supply partner. Phase two will follow phase one, involving field areas from West Ditchburn to North Charlton.

This project follows a previous £1.1 million investment to lay a 3.1-kilometer water main from Eglingham village to West Ditchburn. In Middlesbrough, a £1 million investment aimed at improving water quality and reliability for town residents has also entered its next phase. The work, carried out by United Infrastructure near Ormesby Bank, involves replacing larger-diameter water mains and, over the next five months, replacing pipes directly supplying over 700 homes, with a total of more than 5.6 kilometers of pipes being renewed.

These projects are part of Northumbrian Water's broader £74 million investment in the water supply network over five years, which will result in the replacement of over 360 kilometers of aging pipes across the Northeast region.
