Wessex Water

Wessex Water has completed a £26 million improvement scheme at a sewage treatment works in Weston-super-Mare to safeguard water quality at the town’s beaches.
The improvement means the works can store more storm water during intense rainfall and treat sewage to a higher standard before it is released into the estuary.
Although over the years bathing water quality at Weston Main and Uphill slipway regularly met the mandatory bathing water standard, under the revised Bathing Water Directive, which comes into force in 2015, and based on historical sampling results, water quality would be assessed as ‘poor’ under stricter quality standards being introduced.
We are being given a most interesting tour of this upgraded facility. There is no charge for entry but I need to have names asap for security reasons.
We will travel by coach and the fare will be £18.
Pick up can be in Cirencester at the Beeches carpark at 8.00am, in Tetbury or at the M4 junction 18.
Lunch can be taken at the Cove restaurant in Weston-super-Mare.
Return home about 5.00pm
