There is a foul smell coming from the Bridgetown Sewage Treatment Plant once again.

However, the Barbados Water Authority (BWA) has said it was in no way linked to it rerouting sewage from the Bay Street area through a recommissioned lift station.

Since Saturday, there has been a nauseating smell emanating from the sewage plant in Emmerton, The City, which was affecting surrounding areas like Lakes Folly, Cheapside and Fontabelle.

BWA rapid response and communications manager, Joy-Ann Haigh, told the DAILY NATION while investigations were ongoing to determine the nature of the odour, it was not linked to recent mitigation efforts in connection with the South Coast sewage crisis. (AD)
