Capturing rainwater to reduce pressure on Lancashire’s sewers
Our sewers combine rainfall with wastewater from houses and businesses - so heavy periods of rain make it more likely that storm overflows will operate.
Less water going into sewers reduces this risk - so we’re working with local communities to slow the flow of rainwater into the sewer network and working to improve river health.
