Town of Hanson : Fall Flushing To Begin

From: Town of Hanson
October 8, 2022

The Hanson Water Department will begin Fall flushing the week of October 10, 2022 between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 2:00 P.M.   Flushing will be in the East Washington Street area starting on Christopher Lane; moving to Harvey Circle (weather permitting).  

Please avoid during laundry during the hours of flushing hydrants as the water could become discolored and potentially stain any white laundry.  Also; as stated in the past; streets in the general vicinity of  the flushing area; could also experience discolored water even though we may not be directly on your street.

Flushing hydrants minimizes the build up of minerals and other sediments in the water mains; and its's also important because it allows the department to verify that the fire hydrants are working properly for fire protection.

Updates on the flushing schedules will be posted on the town's website as needed.  As always; we appreciate your cooperation and patience during this time.  If you have any further questions, please contact the Water Department at 781-447-1200.  

Thank you.
