La inceputul acestui an in Londra au fost amplasate patru fantani cu apa potabila.

Locatiile celor patru fantani sunt:
- Kingly Court, Carnaby Street, Westminster
- Liverpool Street Station, langa intrarea la metrou
- Liverpool Street Station, langa iesirea Bishopsgate
- Heart of Valentines Park, Redbridge

Primarul Londrei, Sadiq Khan, a considerat ca fantanile publice sunt o modalitatea simpla prin care sa-i incurajeze pe londonezi dar si pe turisti sa renunte la sticlele de plastic. De asemenea fantanile de apa potabila se doresc a fi o alternativa gratuita a sucurilor, descurajand astfel consumul lor.

Potrivit london.gov.uk, peste 8.000 de litri de apa au fost furnizati timp de o luna de cele doua fantani publice instalate in gara Liverpool Street Station, echivalentul a 16.000 de peturi. De asemenea, o alta fantana instalata in zona Carnaby Street, Westminster a fost folosita vara aceasta de peste 10.000 de ori pe luna.

Drept urmare, primaria din Londra a anuntat amplasarea altor 16 fantani publice. Locatiile in care vor fi amplate fantanile sunt:
- Bexleyheath Town Centre, Bexley

- Windrush Square, Brixton
