Sewerage investment plan
Over the coming decade, we will be significantly increasing our budget for sewerage. With a total investment budget of 1.69 billion euros, Fluvius is making a significant contribution to reducing pollution in watercourses across Flanders. However, even with this substantial sum, we will not yet achieve all our objectives. Fluvius is therefore in constant dialogue with stakeholders to enable these final efforts and realise our ambitions.
Sewer scans
Fluvius contributes to a climate-resilient and liveable environment by proactively inspecting and reinforcing the sewer network. Since 2022, we have been carrying out sewer scans in the towns and municipalities where we act as the sewer operator. By the end of 2025, all top-critical pipes and 50% of the remaining high-risk pipes had been inspected, entirely on schedule. Using robotic cameras, drones and manhole cameras, we identify defects and vulnerabilities in a targeted manner, so that repair and renewal works can be carried out in good time. In combination with rainwater and drought management plans for local authorities and the roll-out of sensors for continuous monitoring, we are strengthening the resilience of the sewerage network against the effects of climate change. In this way, we help to limit flooding, protect water quality and contribute to building a safe and sustainable living environment for current and future generations.
