 Starting June 28, 2010 and proceeding over the next several weeks, the Elmira Water Board will be replacing the water main on Bridgeman Street. To install the new main the project will require us to excavate portions of the street. Some disruptions to the traffic flow in the area will result; however, we will do whatever we can to minimize this problem. There will be a brief (2 hours) interruption of water service to homes during the last phase of the project which will occur as we begin switching over individual service lines from the old main to the new. Residents will be notified before their water service is interrupted. The Elmira Water Board appreciates the cooperation and patience of the Bridgeman Street residents during this project and apologizes for any inconvenience this work may cause. If you have any questions regarding the project, please feel free to contact our Main Office between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM at 733-9179 or our Filtration Plant (24 hours/day) at 732-2277.
