Water Main Restoration
This dashboard tracks the percentage of emergency water main repairs completed within 8 hours of isolating the main for repairs.
Why Repairs Can Take Time
Underground complexity
Crews must identify the exact issue before work begins, often alongside gas, electric, and sewer lines.
Safety requirements
Site setup, valve operations, and utility locates are required before any excavation can start.
Aging infrastructure
Older mains and worn valves can complicate isolation and sometimes cause secondary breaks during repair.
What we're doing about it
The Water Division is developing a Water Master Plan to proactively replace aging mains and valves — using data-driven condition assessments and risk scoring to prioritize the work.
