Posted on: November 9, 2016 - 1:42pm

The Water Division of the DPW will be performing water main flushing on November 9, 2016 from 8:00 PM to 2:00 AM.  The streets affected include:

Broadway

Elm Street

Riverside Drive

Cranberry Lane

Indian Head Drive

Water Street

Saltwind Drive

Graham Hill Drive

Arthur Matthew Drive

Sharon Drive

Trailside Lane

While the hydrants are open in your neighborhood, you may experience discolored water or a small drop in water pressure. In the unlikely event your water service is interrupted or you are experiencing no water pressure please notify the DPW as soon as possible at 781-826-3189.  Should your water appear reddish, yellow or brown, do not be alarmed.  It is recommended you do not use the water or do laundry for two hours after noticing this discoloration.  After you have waited, run your cold water tap (without the aerator screen) for five to ten minutes.  This should remove any sediment from inside your service.  If the water does not clear after two hours, please notify the DPW at 781-826-3189.
