Gardner MA Water Main Break, again…
Citizens on social media have reported yet another water main break, apparently occurring at the Leamy, Barthel, Baker intersection the morning of December 28, 2021. Gardner Magazine called the DPW for any information. We asked if the Water Department had any staffing shortages which would impede response and the staff member indicated there were none. We were referred to email Dane Arnold, Director of Public Works, who is out of the office and we will pass along any information which we receive.
Gardner MA has had its share of water main breaks over the past year and has replaced some very old pipe in the repair process. In many cases, the Water Department has been proactive in replacing pipe to avoid potential water breaks. However, some citizens are frustrated over the ongoing issue. To report a water main break, please call the department at (978) 630-8195. The water/sewer department has a dedicated page on the City of Gardner site. CLICK HERE.
