A project to identify how river and bathing waters in the Berwick-upon-Tweed can be improved has been given an early funding boost.
Northumbrian Water applied for funding to accelerate £50m pounds worth of investment to reduce spills from storm overflows at Tweedmouth and Spittal by 2030.
The scheme has been approved as one of 31 accelerated delivery investment schemes announced by Ofwat to bring benefits for customers and the environment across the country.
