Press release from Liberty:

Aug. 24, 2022

Liberty New York Water is investing $250,000 to replace outdated mains along a stretch of roadway in the Village of Malverne. The nearly 100-year-old infrastructure will be replaced with 900-feet of long-lasting ductile iron pipe. The project also includes replacing two hydrants and 25 Liberty service connections.

"We are eager to provide this important upgrade to the people we serve,” said John Kilpatrick, director of engineering for Liberty New York Water. “Maintaining and routinely updating our infrastructure allows us to improve water quality and system pressure, while also ensuring our customers continue to have a dependable water supply.”

This water main replacement project will occur along Park Blvd., from Linmouth Road to Ocean Avenue, and is expected to take approximately three weeks to complete, upon approval from Nassau County Department of Health. This work will include installation of the water main, chlorination, water quality sampling, and the replacement of service lines to homes. The Village of Malverne will execute the final yard restoration after work is completed.

Work began and will occur daily from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., for approximately four weeks. Residents are advised that sections of the street in the construction zone may be closed to traffic during these hours. Liberty will coordinate with homeowners along Park Blvd. to minimize disruptions.
