Pending the completion of the survey and the design of the
main system, it has been possible to prepare some smaller schemes
on the perimeter of the area which will alleviate flooding conditions
and will, in due course, form part of the major scheme.
These are:—
(1) Reconstruction of foul sewer, Hale End;
(2) Billet Road Relief Sewer;
(3) Shernhall Street Relief Sewer;
(4) Chingford Road Relief Sewer;
(5) Coppermill Lane Relief Sewer;
(6) Storm Tanks, Brook Road/Raglan Road.
Various small sections of sewers have been reconstructed and
a new Venturi flume built at Low Hall Farm to record flow.
Designs are being prepared for the construction of new storm
water tanks at Low Hall Farm, together with a new automatic
pumping station.
