[ARCHIVED] Hydrant Flushing Notice starting May 12, 2025

On Monday, May 12, the Bristol Water and Sewer Department will continue our 2025 hydrant flushing season.  The following areas may be affected: 

Norwood Rd, Westwood Rd, Hart St, Whippoorwill La, James P Casey, Baldwin Dr, Elberta St, Glendale Dr, McIntosh Dr, Empire Way, Ridgecrest La, Matthews St Sand Hill Rd, Smith St, Bird Rd, Everett St and some of the surrounding areas.  We will continue flushing this area until the next area is posted.

We will flush hydrants on these streets and the adjacent areas starting at 7:30 a.m. and ending at 2:30 p.m., to allow customers to run their cold water until it runs clear. Low pressure and discolored water is to be expected during flushing and for short periods afterwards. We recommend you refrain from washing clothes during this period. You should run an outside faucet or the cold water in your bathtub until the water runs clear. 

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation.
