PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Monday, May 11 marks the final phase for the flushing of the City of Pittsfield's water system. Mains will be flushed Monday through Friday between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. from May 11 through May 15.

 

The upcoming flushing for this week may be expected to affect the following areas:

 

• Cascade and Churchill streets.

• West Street from Fort Hill Avenue west including Meadow Ridge Drive, Lillybrook Road, and Westbrook Terrace.

 

Although flushing may cause localized discolored water and reduced service pressure conditions in and around the immediate area of flushing, appropriate measures will be taken to ensure that proper levels of treatment and disinfections are maintained in the system at all times. If residents experience discolored water, they should let the water run for a short period to clear it up prior to use.

 

If discolored water or low-pressure conditions persist, please contact the Water Department at (413) 499-9339.
