Yorkshire Water is about to start work on a major £12 million improvement scheme at its Bolton Upon Dearne Waste water Treatment Works (WwTW), Rotherham.
From the end of November the utility’s contract partner, Galliford Try, will start on a 14 month project to construct a brand new inlet works and install a new treatment process.
Once finished, the new treatment process will greatly improve the quality of water being released back into the River Dearne, bringing about significant environmental benefits to the area, including helping fish populations.
Yorkshire Water spokesperson John Bond commented:
“This is a key project to ensure we further improve river quality in South Yorkshire and bring about significant improvements to the local environment. “
The water company treats around 1 billion litres of waste water every day and has over 640 waste water treatment works across the region.
