Sewage bursts: Geoff Crawford asks is this the day senior heads will roll?

 First David Reed MP

“Another month, another burst pipe- more disruption to local people, businesses and tourists.” These words are tiresome now.

South West Water, why have you allowed your network to get into this dire state? Any trust the public had in you is rapidly evaporating.

Upgrade your network and stop this misery.

I will be speaking with the SWW Chief Operating Officer asap to ascertain how long this current burst pipe off Maer Road will take to fix.

Bursts on all Exmouth main rising mains and all part of the plan to pump more sewage to Maer Lane and out to sea.

Network diagram below with locations of bursts in the last 8 months.

Upgrades to pumps prior to upgrading the rising mains. Despite assurances that these pipes have been upgraded we continue to see sewage pipe bursts across Exmouth network.

Is this the day senior heads will roll?
