London Sewerage system
The London sewerage system is a large network of underground pipes designed to carry wastewater away from homes, businesses, and industrial sites. It collects sewage and rainwater, directing it through tunnels to treatment facilities where harmful contaminants are removed. This system helps prevent flooding, protects public health, and maintains environmental quality by ensuring that wastewater is safely processed before being released back into waterways. Engineered for efficiency and durability, the system has evolved over centuries to meet London's growing needs and environmental standards.
