flag Wessex Water to spend £11M on upgrades after failing to meet environmental and service standards, avoiding fines.

flag Wessex Water will invest £11 million in wastewater upgrades after UK regulator Ofwat found the company failed to properly manage its system, breaching environmental and customer service obligations. flag The funding, from shareholders and not customers, avoids a financial penalty and will support pipe sealing, storm overflow improvements, monitoring systems, and sustainable rainwater management. flag This marks the sixth case in Ofwat’s wastewater probe, now totaling £250 million in enforcement actions. flag The company, serving 2.9 million in the South West, expressed regret and pledged £300 million in sewer investments by 2030, while Ofwat stressed accountability to drive sector-wide reform.
