Aqua Pennsylvania is replacing approximately 8,400 feet of aging water mains in Nether Providence and Upper Darby townships. The company is upgrading cast iron water mains with new ductile iron water mains, which are more durable and are comprised of nearly 90 percent recycled metal materials.  

This investment is part of Aqua’s continuing infrastructure improvement program to replace decades-old water and wastewater infrastructure nationwide. The new water mains will reduce the potential for main breaks and discolored water and will improve water flow for customers throughout Delaware County.

• Brookhaven Road between Providence Road and Rodgers Lane 

• Turner Road between Rodgers Lane and Plush Mill Road 

• Avondale Road between Brookhaven Road and Martroy Lane 

• East Possum Hollow Road between Kershaw Road and Church Road 

• Dale Lane between Brookhaven Road to the end of the cul-de-sac 

• Cricket Lane between Avondale Road to the end of the cul-de-sac 

• Within the intersection of Sykes Lane and Avondale Road  

In Upper Darby Township, crews are replacing 1,600 feet of aging 8-inch water main on the following streets: 

• Arlington Avenue between South Cedar Lane and South State Road 

• Westview Avenue between South Carol Boulevard and South State Road
