2025 - Construction Work
During the 2025 construction season (April through November), Providence Water is performing water main rehabilitation and road restoration in the areas below. This work may disrupt normal traffic and may require temporary bypass piping and water service connections for customers.
These projects are part of Providence Water's Infrastructure Rehabilitation Program (IFR) to reinvest in our system to continue to provide reliable, safe, and clean drinking water to our customers. Our IFR program includes replacing and rehabilitating aging infrastructure, replacing lead service lines, rehabilitating water mains, and installing new water mains to improve our water distribution system.
