United Utilities is accelerating storm overflow performance through a dual strategy that couples rapid operational and digital wins with the long‑term delivery of AMP8 assets. Operationally, the Environmental Improvement Programme has deployed digital network intelligence, real‑time control, and targeted field interventions to achieve spill reductions at pace and generate insights that reshape future investment sequencing. On the capital side, AMP8 focuses on 434 priority overflows, applying a standardised storage baseline and rigorously assessing alternatives such as rainwater removal, separation and adaptive pathways. This paper distils lessons from operational deployment and capital delivery, including details on how data, digital and innovative approaches are being embraced.
