Thames Water's Huge Reservoir Plans Rejected

Today the news was announced that Thames Water's plans for a huge reservoir on our doorstep in East Hanney/Steventon have been scrapped. Read the full story on the BBC website. The inspector ruled that there was no immediate need for such a site. The government have therefore rejected the proposals. It is thought that perhaps Thames Water may pursue building a smaller reservoir instead. We shall see, but in the meantime I am sure many residents will be relieved to hear this news. I have campaigned to have our local views heard on this issue over the years, so pleased that someone has listened to our concerns.
