[ARCHIVED] Hydrant Flushing Notice starting July 15, 2025

On Tuesday, July 15, 2025, the Bristol Water and Sewer Department will continue our 2025 hydrant flushing season.   

 

The following areas may be affected: 

 

West Street, Upson Street, hydrant in front of 71 Wolcott Street, Union Street near East Road, Church Street, the bottom of Main Street, South Street, George Street, Hull Street, Porter Court, Buckingham Street, Hillside Avenue, 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.
