Just wondering whether there is a standard for access on long drain runs for SW. I know foul has to have a manhole at least every 90m, is it the same for SW?

Cheers in advance

The standards are the same for FW and for SW. 90m is the max spacing for Manholes - IC's or access chambers (as used on residential drainage) have a lesser maximum separation distance (45m)

Many thanks Tony, I thought it might be. Now I know.
