Storm overflows are an important part of the sewerage network. They act as a pressure relief when there is too much rainfall, allowing rain water, mixed with sewage, to rise inside the sewer and eventually flow into a river or the sea. Sewers operate this way to help prevent the flooding of streets, homes and businesses.
