The firm says the rise in the cost will help to fund an ongoing investment programme of £1.3 million a day, which includes diversion works to allow the 17.5km extension of the NET tram service in Nottingham. The company will also invest £13 million in Nottingham city's main sewage treatment works.
Simon Mullan, credit manager at Severn Trent Water, said: "Any price rise, however small, is unwelcome in the current economic climate, but we have worked hard to keep bills as affordable as possible for our customers. In fact our customers will be paying an average of 92 pence a day – that's less than the average cost for a litre of bottled water."

“Nottinghamshire bottom of yet another league table. I am sure all the usual excuses will come out about "tightly drawn boundaries," and the Post failing to make proper enquiries, but you can't argue with statistics. It is, of course, all the fault of those incompetents on the council.”
