Water main flushing week of May 1

Acton Public Works will perform seasonal water main flushing activities starting the week of May 1, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., subject to water availability. Routine flushing is required to maintain and improve water quality throughout the distribution system. If flushing occurs within your neighborhood, you should refrain from using unnecessary water during this time to reduce your chance of drawing sediment into your property.

The flushing schedule, listed below, identifies general areas and dates of flushing, not each individual street. More information and a map highlighting areas are available on our website www.concordma.gov/flushing.
