Planning for reservoirs streamlined
Daily Post
|May 29, 2025
THE Government has stepped in to take control of the planning process for two major new reservoirs, as it warns UK water supplies are under threat.
-
Environment Secretary Steve Reed has designated two new reservoir projects in East Anglia and Lincolnshire as “nationally significant,” escalating them from local planning to central Government.
The move aims to streamline and fast-track the delivery of the two new reservoirs, the first for more than 30 years, to improve water resources for more than three quarters of a million homes in some of England’s most water-stressed areas and unlock the building of new homes.
