Two new reservoirs in the pipeline to meet demand
July 03, 2025
|Frome Standard
Two new Somerset reservoirs will play a vital role in ensuring the region has all the water it needs over the coming decades, the Environment Agency (EA) has said.
Latest EA modelling shows England faces a shortfall of five billion litres a day of public water by 2055 without urgent action by the Government and water companies.
Environment secretary Steve Reed MP announced on May 29 that nine new reservoirs would be built across the UK by 2050 including the 'Cheddar Two' reservoir south of the existing facility in Somerset.
South West Water has confirmed its intentions to pursue this facility, with public consultation expected to begin later this year and a planning application due to come forward by 2027.
