Severn Trent – River Mease Improvement Project – Community Drop In Session

You may already have seen our teams working near you as we begin a major project. We’re
helping improve the River Mease by transferring the cleaned used water from Packington and
Measham Treatment Works to the River Tame.

The River Mease currently has a flow that’s about twice as high as it should be naturally, and
part of this is because of the amount of cleaned used water going into it from our works.

To help bring the Mease back to its natural condition, we’re going to take the outflow from
these plants and send it through a 24km pipeline we’re installing across to the Tame. At the
same time, we’re going to be upgrading the two treatment works to further improve water
quality.

If you’d like to know more about what’s happening, please come along to our community
