New stink in Worthing

THE SMELL OF sewage returned to a section of the South Coast yesterday.

And while the Barbados Water Authority’s (BWA) new director of its Waste Water Recovery Programme said it was as a result of the BWA flushing the system, those in the high-traffic area were upset.

In Worthing, Christ Church, water, which smelt like raw sewage, was leaking from two manholes – one in front of FirstCaribbean International Bank and the other outside Worthing Post Office. However, the scent had drifted as far as Massy supermarket and the water was seen running into the drains at the side of the road.

There appeared, however, to be no issues to the rear of the supermarket as had been the case during the last sewage leak. (HLE)
