Thames Water Booster Station Update - June 2025

Latest Update on Thames Water Pumping Station – June 2025

Members of Buckland Parish Council met with Thames Water representatives in December 2024 and were promised an update at the end of March 2025. Unfortunately none was received. BPC continue to chase Thames Water regarding this matter to no avail. MP for Aylesbury Laura Kyrke Smith kindly chased them up for us a couple of weeks ago.

The response received was:

As discussed at our meeting during December, there have been some delays to the Hawridge Alleviation of Low Flows project due to challenges associated with the wider scope of the project, including the pipe crossing under HS2.

We have now appointed a design partner to progress the feasibility assessment of relocating the water booster station and we are currently waiting for confirmed timescales for the exercise. It is anticipated the assessment will take a few months to complete and there will be some on site investigations to be undertaken, which will need to be agreed with the landowner.

We can provide a further update once a programme for the feasibility study is confirmed with our design partner.

Unfortunately this does not give us any further insight into timescales or plans etc. Laura has kindly asked Thames Water to provide this information to help keep local stakeholders updated on progress.

We will share anything further as we receive it.
