Ashhurst Village Water Flushing Programme
Ashhurst Village Water Flushing
Programme
Palmerston North City Council
(PNCC) will start flushing the entire water supply network
in Ashhurst Village to remove deposits that cause
discoloured water issues. A public notice has been published
in the Ashhurst Village Voice which all affected properties
should have received. And public notices have been given to
Ashhurst shop owners.
A flushing schedule has been
developed following a sequence which allows a section of the
networks to be cleaned completely before proceeding to the
next section. PNCC staff will be flushing the pipes from
fire hydrants section by section starting from Tuesday 10
July 9:00 am.
During the flushing process, there
could be periodic low water pressure or
discoloured water across the Village. To
help with the flushing programme, residents are advised to
minimise water use on Tuesday 10 July between 9am to 1pm.
Residents are advised to check water clarity before using
their washing machines for the next two weeks to avoid
clothes being stained in the
washing.
