News and Updates
Thames Water is investing £40m in two programs to upgrade over 50km of old pipes in your area.
This includes pipelines in Plaistow, Canning Town, Forest Gate, and Stratford and Bow, in Newham.
The new plastic pipes will be much stronger than the old cast-iron ones. Strengthening our network is key to delivering essential services for years to come.
When and where they'll be working
Thames Water will be continuing pipe replacement along Barking Road from 5 January 2026 to early 2027.
