London, United Kingdom
Dubbed ‘London’s Super Sewer’, Thames Tideway Tunnel is the biggest infrastructure project ever undertaken by the UK water industry. Designed to upgrade London’s 150-year-old sewer network, originally built for a population less than half its current size, during heavy rainfall the existing infrastructure was releasing millions of tonnes of untreated raw sewage into the River Thames each year. The new 25 km solution would intercept wastewater and storm water to divert it into plants in a bid to clean up the river.
