Should the proposed massive reservoir near Abingdon be built to prevent future water shortages?
The proposed South East Strategic Reservoir Option (SESRO) near Abingdon would hold 100 billion litres, one of the UK's largest. Supporters claim it is vital to secure water for 15 million people by 2040 amid population growth and climate change. Opponents, including local MPs, argue water companies lose 600 million litres daily to leaks and flooding the countryside is a destructive solution compared to fixing infrastructure and reducing demand.
