Portland and Concord Water Main Break
Major Water Main Break Dec. 9th, 2022
There is a major water main break at the intersection of Portland Street and Concord Avenue. Areas affected by the break are Portland Street (from Railroad Street to Carroll Concrete) and Concord Avenue (the entire length from Pleasant Street to Parker Avenue). This includes all streets off these two major roads.
The estimated repair time is 7 to 8 hours, and there is a strong possibility that there WILL be a boil water notice after repairs have been made.
