Aqua Replacing Water Main On Tredyffrin Township Road

TREDYFFRIN TOWNSHIP, PA — Aqua Pennsylvania crews will be replacing 2,000 feet of water mains in Tredyffrin Township over the coming months.

Work will begin the week of Feb. 3 and take place on Glenhardie Road between Walker Road and the turnpike overpass in Tredyffrin Township.

Crews will work weekdays from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.

During the work, emergency, mail, and trash services will have access to Glenhardie Road. Residents will have access to their properties, but at times will need to enter from different directions due to changing work zones.

The trench used by laborers will be covered with temporary blacktop at the end of each workday.

Permanent road restoration will take place in the spring.

Following installation, the new main will be flushed, chlorinated and tested for water quality before being placed into service.

During the chlorination/testing phase, activity on the job site may be limited. Once the water quality testing has been completed, Aqua will transfer each water service and fire hydrant to the new main.

When all final connections are made to mains on the side streets, the old main will be abandoned.

Aqua will notify customers ahead of any planned water service interruptions and will provide 24 hours advance notice for any scheduled interruption greater than 30 minutes.

Aqua will have an inspector on the job each day to answer any questions. Residents can also call Aqua at 610-430-0747 with questions about the work.
