The Tideway Project - Stock-Fotografie

Close up of the tunnel boring drill excavating under the Thames River bed of stones, mud and river water (low tide). To build the Thames Tideway Tunnel, tunnel boring machines excavate the main tunnel. Decreasing the pollution of urban environments affects the health and quality of life of the urban population. Hence the Thames Tideway Tunnel is under-construction, starting in 2016, construction of the Thames Tideway Tunnel will complete in 2023. A 25 km tunnel will run from Acton in the west of London under central London down to Abbey Mills in the east. The aim of the Tideway Tunnel is to: - protect the ecology - reduce aesthetic pollution due to sewage-derived litter - protect the health of recreational water users - increase resilience to drought and floods - Reduce urban air pollution - improved urban biodiversity. The Tunnel will connect 34 of the most polluting combined sewer overflows and transfer the captured sewage to the Lee Tunnel for onward delivery to Beckton Sewage Treatment Works for treatment. The recycled clean water is then released into the River Thames.
