Concord Road Water Main Cleaning and Lining

........Concord Road Water Main Cleaning and Lining
The Department of Public Works will be addressing rusty water complaints along Concord Road between Davis Road at St. Michael’s Church and Hartwell Road beginning September 12th. The process scrapes off unsuitable deposits and then applies a cement lining on the inside of the water pipe to prohibit the future growth of rust. The work will be performed by N. Granese & Sons.
In order to perform this work, the existing water main must be taken out of service. Temporary service pipe will be laid above ground and individual houses will be connected to the temporary pipe. Temporary hydrants will be set to maintain emergency fire protection throughout the project.
Bedford Water Division personnel will be overseeing this project. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please contact the DPW at (781) 275-7605. The work should be complete by the end of the October.

Granese has finished cleaning and cement-lining the 8-inch water main between Hartwell Road and Davis Road. They will be replacing the last two hydrants and reinstalling the gate valves. On Friday, October 28th, they will chlorinate the main and let it set over the weekend, so that it can be flushed and sampled early next week. Once two consecutive clean samples are obtained, the contractor will remove the bypass hoses from houses and reset the meters.
