Renovation of a water / sewer project in Attleboro, Massachusetts. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a water / sewer project.

This capital project entails: (a) cleaning and lining watermains on North Main Street, Kelley Boulevard, Bungay Road, Mount Vernon Avenue, Mansfield Road, Lindsey Street (from the city line, north), and Balcom Street, (b) replace ten aged fire hydrants, (c) replace 20 old line gate valves, and (d) and (re)paving. The existing watermains date back to the 1920s and are constructed of unlined cast iron. Although watermains are structurally sound, cleaning and lining them will not only improve water quality for customers in Mansfield, North Attleborough, and other areas north of the city but also reduce the volume of disinfectants used at the Plant. While no additional annual costs are anticipated, the Water Department in fact may realize a reduction in chemical feed as well as a reduction in water usage when flushing to maintain water quality. The relining and cleaning capital project cost is approximately 25% less than replacing the watermains. The project is included in the City's 2027-2031 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) As of June 11, 2026 , further details have not yet been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
