en.Wedoany.com Reported - Thames Water plans to invest over £20 million to upgrade water infrastructure in the Woodley area of Berkshire. The investment is considered part of the company's largest upgrade in 150 years, aimed at improving customer service and the environment.

The funds will be directed to a series of projects in Woodley and surrounding areas to enhance water quality, strengthen infrastructure resilience, and meet future water demand.

Key projects include an £8.4 million investment to upgrade Bowsey Hill Service Reservoir and an £11 million investment to upgrade Sheeplands Water Treatment Works.

These facility upgrades will be equipped with new water treatment and monitoring systems, as well as chemical dosing processes to improve drinking water quality, along with infrastructure improvements that help maintain supply during planned water outages.

For customers, this means stricter compliance with Drinking Water Inspectorate standards, enhanced regional resilience, and reduced risk of water quality issues or service interruptions.

Most of the work will be completed within the next five years as part of Thames Water's AMP8 investment plan, with some projects finishing earlier and others progressing over a longer timeframe.

Paul Wetton, Thames Water's Water Projects Director, stated that this investment is a key component of the company's largest infrastructure upgrade in 150 years, helping to modernize the network, protect water supplies, and provide customers with a more resilient service. By upgrading water treatment works, improving monitoring, and introducing new processes, the company is helping to maintain high standards of drinking water quality while supporting future demand and population growth.
