SCHEME GRANTED PLANNING PERMISSION

Dear All,

I'm sure you'll be delighted as we are to know the campaign has been successful:

WE WON!!!! 

Planning permission was granted on Aug 6th 2013 for the flood alleviation scheme to go ahead.

Our community demanded action from Thames Water. Thames Water listened, created computer models to understand the problem, evaluated solutions, investigated sites, came up a proposal, got OFWAT funding approval and finally, planning permission.

It's taken 4 years of meetings, reviews, consultations, discussions, and more consultations to get here!

Big thanks to all in the community who contributed, and to Westminster City Council and our local Councillors  for their support in getting this problem taken seriously, as well as pushing Thames to achieve the best possible solution for the community.

It's a real victory for people who've suffered sewer flooding for a long time.

So what next?
Work will start on the £17.5m project this autumn.
