What's happening to Oldham's wastewater treatment?
And the upgrade at Chadderton, the new pipeline and the storage facilities at Royton will allow our customers to flush the loo and empty their baths for generations to come. In May 2016, we invited Oldham residents to two public exhibitions to see our plans for the wastewater treatment improvements.
Where was the Oldham and Royton wastewater treatment works exhibition held?
For residents living near Oldham Wastewater Treatment Works, the exhibition was held at the Kingfisher Community Special School in Oldham. And, for residents living near Royton Wastewater Treatment Works, the exhibition was held at St. Paul’s Parish Centre in Royton.
How will the new Royton to Oldham wastewater pipeline work?
When it comes into use, the new 4.5km pipeline that we’ve now completed will transfer wastewater from Royton to Oldham. We have been able to use a new method of ‘trenchless’ working, which means that where possible we’ve laid the pipe without digging up the road, helping to minimise disruption to local residents and businesses.
