Sewage spills on to Newquay street after blockage

Sewage spilled out on to a Cornish street on two separate occasions following a blockage and heavy rainfall.

South West Water (SWW) said it was called to Cliff Road in Newquay at about 18:30 BST on Saturday and cleaned up sewage, water and other debris which had come out of an overflowing sewer.

Engineers left the site at 23:30, but had to return at 11:30 on Sunday when the issue recurred after further heavy rainfall.

A SWW spokesperson said a blockage combined with heavy rain had “overwhelmed” the sewer and engineers would use a camera to see if there were any further issues that needed flushing through.
