Part Of New Sewerage System To Be Named After A 'Nearly An Olympian'
Part of a new sewerage system, which has just been completed in Islington, London, is to be named after an athlete who nearly made the Olympics as part of the hugely successful and immensely popular - Team GB.
Head of Engineering, Fred Summerskill, is pleased that the project, which has been brought in late and over-budget, is now completed.
"What we have is a main sewer pipe, much like any other you may have come across, but it then splits into four holding areas. Usually, sewerage systems just get a number, but with everyone in the Olympic spirit, it feels just right. We have decided to name this part of the system - Drain Chambers.
"Basically, it will be full of crap most of the time," he added.
