Planned Water Outage and Boil Water Advisory-Sunnyside Blvd Water Customers

October 9, 2024 | |

As part of the Railroad Street bridge replacement, we have installed a new water main. This new main must be tested and then put in service. The work to put the main in service is scheduled for Thursday, October 10, 2024 estimated start time is 8am until approximately 5pm. Consequently, Approximately 20-30 Bellefonte Borough Water Customers on Sunnyside Blvd will not have water service for a period of time on Thursday. There will also be a mandatory boil water advisory just for the Bellefonte Borough Water Customers on Sunnyside Blvd. The Boil Water Advisory will be in place until testing comes back with no bacteria and DEP says we can lift the Boil Water Advisory. If you have any questions please call the office at 814-355-1501
