West Country strategic schemes to continue through RAPID process

by Karma Loveday

Ofwat has cleared the two West Country strategic water resource schemes to continue through RAPID’s gated funding process.


The Wessex Water and South West Water Poole Effluent Recycling and Transfer project – now to be known as the Poole Water Recycling and Transfer project – will proceed to gate three.


Meanwhile the Cheddar 2 source and transfer scheme being developed by Wessex Water and Bristol Water will receive continued development funding to progress to a “conditional review point” on 29 January 2024. Ofwat said if it is satisfied the solution should continue to be developed at that point, January 2025 would represent the suitable timing for the gate three submission.


The two strategic projects join 12 others that were cleared to continue last month.
