Victoria Reservoir is a reinforced concrete service reservoir located in the heart of Bristol. Constructed in 1914, it is one of the oldest reservoirs of its type in the UK. It was constructed on the site of an earlier open service reservoir. During the second world war, the reservoir was damaged and repaired on account of bombs being dropped on it during the Bristol Blitz. In more recent decades, a series of investigations and repairs have been carried out to assess and maintain its structural condition and operational performance. This paper will describe and discuss the various challenges faced by the operator in managing the safety and operational risks associated with a very old reinforced concrete service reservoir.
