The Guardian: London’s new wave of drinking fountains have proved popular, with figures suggesting that thirsty members of the public have drunk thousands of litres of water from them since the first four were installed in the capital earlier this year.
According to the team behind the installations, more than 8,000 litres of water have been dispensed in under a month from two drinking fountains installed at Liverpool Street Station – equal to 16,000 standard bottles of water – while another fountain, installed off Carnaby Street in March, has been used more than 10,000 times a month since tracking began in early June.
