This Heath Robinson affair of six pumps pumping into a tank with two tractors pumping it out and up to Maer Lane. This is what has overflowed and closed Exmouth beach for the third time in August.

This was supposed to replace a major pumping station for four weeks. Hand me another sticking plaster please.

This is SWWs solution to what should have been a replacement rising main.

It’ll cost Exmouth £m’s but SWW don’t care about that. Geoff Crawford ESCAPE
