Aquarion Water Company to Improve Water Mains in Sheffield

Water main cleaning project scheduled to begin April 13

Sheffield, MA April 8, 2025 – Aquarion Water Company today announced a water main cleaning project in the Sheffield system. The project, scheduled to run from April 13 to April 15, will ensure customers in Sheffield continue to receive the highest quality water. 

The cleaning schedule will take place from 5 PM to 8 AM on the following streets:

Ashley Falls Rd, Bears Den Rd, Berkshire School Rd, Boardman St, Bow Wow Rd, Bridge View Ln, Cobble Ln, Cook Rd, County Rd, Depot Square, Dewy Way, East Rd, Elm Ct, Farm View Rd, Frederic Ln, Hewins St, Laurel Ln, Main St, Maple Ave, Miller Ave, N Main St, Old Mill Pond Rd, Park Ln, Pheasant Ln, Pike Rd, Plymouth Ln, Root Ln, S Main St, Salisbury Rd, Sheffield Plain, Silver St, Spring Hollow Ln, Squire Ln, Water Farm Rd, Weidmar Ter, and Woodedge Ln.

During the water main cleaning, customers may experience temporary low pressure, no water, and/or discolored water. This discoloration results from the temporary disturbance of the water flow, which stirs up naturally occurring minerals that settle in water mains. 

Aquarion recommends that customers store water in their refrigerators for drinking and cooking. If the water is discolored, customers should refrain from washing laundry. Before resuming use, customers should run their cold-water faucets until the water appears clear.
