BRATTLEBORO — Utilities Division crews from the Department of Public Works will start spring flushing of the town water mains on Thursday, April 22 at 10 p.m. and continue work through Saturday, May 8.
Some daytime flushing will continue throughout the weeks of May 10 and 17.
Customers are asked to check the flushing schedule closely, as flushing causes water discoloration, low water pressure, and, in some areas, periods of no water.
