The sites included the River Severn in Frankwell, Shrewsbury, and in Ironbridge, as well as the River Teme in Ludlow.
Water company, Severn Trent has moved to reassure residents that they are continuing to work with other sectors to improve river health, stating that they believe they are responsible for around 12 per cent of the river's ecological problems. Wilfred Denga, Severn Trent Bathing Rivers Lead, said: “Today's news builds on the work we have already committed to doing in Ludlow as part of our work to move a stretch of the River Teme towards bathing quality in a groundbreaking £78 million river health project.
