Brattleboro Residents‼️
If you are experiencing low water pressure, a temporary loss of water, or discoloration it is because the town is working to fix the water main. Possible affected locations are listed below.
[UPDATE] Some residents have asked why their street was not included in the boil water notice. The notice only applies to areas where water pressure dropped below the required threshold during the water main breaks. If your street was not listed below, positive pressure was maintained in the water main serving your area and a boil water notice is not required.
Residents may still experience temporary discoloration as the water system continues to stabilize. If you notice discolored water, run cold water for several minutes to help clear your service line.
If you have any questions or concerns, contact the Department of Public Works at 802-254-4255 or email Darren Pacheco at [email protected].
