HYDRANT FLUSHING

HYDRANT FLUSHING

The Water Department will be continuing their flushing program tomorrow October 21, 2021 from 9:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M.  Flushing will begin on Winter Street at (Stonebridge Drive) down Winter Street to Whitman Street.

Please avoid doing any laundry during the flushing hours as the water could become discolored and potentially stain the laundry.  Flushing of the hydrants minimizes the build up of minerals and other sediments in the water mains; and also allows us to verify the fire hydrants are working properly for fire protection.

Also; please be aware that streets in the general vicinity of the flushing area could also experience some discolored water even though we may not be directly on your street.  If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Water Department at 781-447-1200.

We appreciate your cooperation and patience during this time.  

Thank you.
