Some of Littlehampton's locals/residents and visitors have complained about the waterworks, saying that Southern Water's Pumping Station is causing a "big stink" to passers-by and families.

One resident of Rustington, who chose to remain anonymous, said: "With the waterworks causing such a smell, it is causing visitors and locals quite some discomfort, and to people visiting, it will give our town a bad look and they may not return."

One Littlehampton local, who remained anonymous, said: "I hate it when I walk down the seafront and smell people's do-do, it needs to be kept under control to keep both the public and environment satisfied."

Southern Water have received many complaints over time for discharging untreated sewage into the environment, causing unsavoury smells and 'messing around' with drinking water.

Many residents have called for the company to be 'closed completely', saying "they aren't fit to be running".

A new 'Pumping Station' is being built by Southern Water next to Mewsbrook Park, Littlehampton, West #Sussex, #UK.
