WORK is underway on a major upgrade of ageing water pipes in Hampton Magna.
Severn Trent has started installing modern water pipes in Damson Road. The phased programme will continue through Cherry Lane, Woodway Avenue, Daly Avenue, Summer Close, Old Budbrooke Road, Field Barn Road, Blandford Way, and conclude the first phase of works in Church Lane by November.
Work will then continue in nearby Hampton on the Hill as part of the £2million project, with the schedule for this part still to be finalised.
A Severn Trent spokesperson said: “We understand that these types of works can cause disruption, and we want to thank everyone for their patience as our teams are working.
“We’re looking forward to working closely with the community throughout the project and making improvements that will have a long-lasting impact for everyone.
“As our work continues, will we make sure that we liaise with all our customers and keep them informed of our progress.”
“We know that customers have experienced frequent bursts on the network in the area, which result in loss of supplies and cause issues for them and that is something that will be addressed with this work.
“With this mains renewal going ahead, it will help future-proof the village’s water supply and reduce the risk of leaks and bursts for years to come.”
Any local business that may see a direct impact on sales because of the works, can contact Severn Trent’s business loss team at [email protected] for advice.
