Aqua to Replace Water Main on Davisville and Terwood Roads

Construction is set to begin June 13 and last until September—regular traffic will be affected.

As part of a continuing infrastructure improvement program, Aqua Pennsylvania will replace the water main on the following streets in Upper Moreland:

  • Davisville Road between Terwood Road and south of Ball Road.
  • Terwood Road between Davisville Road and Bear Blvd.

The new main will increase service reliability and improve firefighting capabilities in the area. Aqua will have an inspector on the job each day to answer any questions from residents.

The $791,500 project is scheduled to begin June 13 and will involve the installation of 3,400 feet of 12-inch ductile iron main. The new main will replace the existing 6-inch and 8-inch cast iron main.
