💦💦💦💦The Brockton Utilities Division will conduct a water main flushing program starting September 14, 2026 and continue through October 1, 2026. The majority of the work will be done between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. 💦💦💦💦

To see the schedule, visit: https://brockton.gov/city-departments/public-works/water-main-flushing-map/

The activity will cause discolored water in varying degrees in all sections of the city. Persons who experience water discoloration should clear their water systems by opening the cold water faucet for several minutes and then wait about an hour. If water is still not clear, they should repeat the flushing procedure. Every effort will be made to keep inconvenience to the users at a minimum.

Notice is hereby given that starting Monday, September 14, 2026 the areas to be flushed are the streets starting at Court Street, north to East Ashland Street, N. Montello Street, east to the
Abington line, and all streets in between. The flushing will take place between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m.
