Why is your water main being replaced?
Replacements are done for various reasons, including repairing or avoiding water main breaks, replacing corroded pipe, improving water quality, increasing available hydrant flow and improving area delivery. All of these are important to maintaining the system that delivers your water. Proactive water main replacement is necessary to reduce the amount and severity of water main breaks and water system component failures in areas which meet the criteria of a section in need of replacement.
What to expect when the project begins?
The Evesham MUA and it’s contractors will continue to communicate with residents during each step of the process, and let residents know of the current conditions through signage, social media, and door tags. It is important to the Evesham MUA that residents are aware of the status of the project throughout the duration of the construction.
