Our improvements at Dufton Wastewater Treatment Works

We’re playing our part to build a stronger, greener and healthier Cumbria, carrying out a programme of  investment, improvement and infrastructure projects right across the county.

What did the work include?

We’re committed to improving the health of rivers, lakes and waterways across the North West. As part of this commitment, we’ve invested in our wastewater network and treatment sites to improve the quality of water we return to the environment and help reduce the use of storm overflows.

At Dufton Wastewater Treatment Works, we upgraded existing equipment to improve the treatment process and help ensure water is treated to even higher standards before being returned to the environment.
