Thames Water has not yet started cleaning of sewage in Wealdstone Brook


UPDATE FROM BHRA:  Cleaning and wash down of the Wealdstone Brook sewage pollution  did not start on 31st March nor on 1st April as had been promised.  No works have started to date. Thames Water is aware of the food packages that hopefully are picked up ahead of the rats.

Two locations causing the sewage that are most likely the cause(s) is (are) Rosslyn Crescent and Elexus garage and offices close to Rosslyn Crescent in The Hawthorne Crescent. Thames Water mentioned that no further sewage flow is apparent at the moment, but observers within Brent and Harrow Rivers Alliance (BHRA) have continued photographing the  pollution that is increasing in the very slow moving water.

We await confirmation from Thames Water that the cause has been found - nothing yet. All the the photographs are being kept on file and timed dated.

It is totally unacceptable that Thames Water is not sticking to their word. It is an utter disregard for the health and welfare of the residents living in and around the Brook.

As the Green Party council candidate for the area I am calling on Thames Water to do the right thing before we have have an epidemic on our hands, in which case much more resources will need to be deployed. We need action on the issue now and not after-the-fact. Get on it, Thames Water!
