Update: Water main flushing continues this week

Updated Oct. 18, 2021 to reflect a new title and revised schedule — originally titled "Water main flushing across campus scheduled for next week"

Waterworks crews continue to flush hydrants across campus this week, and work will be focused south of State Street.

Pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists should avoid areas where work is actively underway and areas with standing water. 

As a result of the flushing, water from faucets may be discolored for a short period. Although this does not affect the water quality, individuals may allow the faucet to run for a few moments to remove the discoloration.

Questions may be directed to Chris Marks, supervisor, at (765) 496-2705 or camarks2@purdue.edu.
