Discolored Water A Possibility In Malden Water Flushing

MALDEN, MA — Water flushing on Main Street in Malden may lead to discolored water on Friday, the city warned on Friday morning.

The Water Utilities Department will flush for roughly one hour following reports of low pressure. Flushing will take place between Main Street's intersections with Orient and Forest Streets.

The city did not provide a specific timing for this work, saying it would take place "midday."

Anyone who experiences discolored water should run their cold water until it runs clear. Residents should call the Water Utilities Department at 781-873-9775 or 978-870-7258 if low water pressure persists through the afternoon.
