[ARCHIVED] Hydrant Flushing Notice starting Aug 6, 2025

On Wednesday, Aug 6, 2025, the Bristol Water and Sewer Department will continue our 2025 hydrant flushing season.  
The following areas may be affected: 


Wolcott Street, Old Orchard Road, Witches Rock Road, Allentown Road, Crown Street, Melinda Lane, Greystone Avenue, East Road, Claremont Street, Harvest Lane, Briarwood Road, 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 7:00 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.
The Bristol Water and Sewer Department
