Most of you will have already been paying for highway drainage in your waste water charge, which we collect on behalf of Severn Trent Water, however to make the charges clear, it is now itemised on your bill.
Highway drainage is separate to surface water drainage:
Important: If you are not connected to a public sewer (for example, if you have a septic tank), you won't be charged for highway drainage.
Find out more about the highway drainage charge on the Severn Trent website.
