Thames Water has some 13 million customers in London and the Thames Valley region supplied through 31,525 km of mains, and an additional one and half million billed customers across Wales. As well as the utility operations in London and the Thames Valley, Thames Water has contracts across England, Scotland, and Wales. They are part of the Metronet consortium, which has been appointed to run two of the three contracts for the maintenance of the London Underground. Over the five years to 2010 Thames Water are investing £500,000 a day to reduce leakage, a total of £1billion. Over 2,000 people are already working to bring leakage down, a figure that will rise as Victorian main replacement work in London accelerates. 87,000 leaks were fixed in 2005/06 up 20 per cent compared to the previous year. In the water supply zone covering towns such as Reading, Oxford, Guildford, Newbury and Swindon leakage is now at its lowest level since comparable records began ten years ago.
