Updated May 28: The water shutoff originally scheduled for Tuesday, May 26 has been rescheduled. Water service will now be shut off Thursday, June 4, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. In the event of rain, work will occur Friday, June 5, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The City of Rockville will temporarily shut off water service at Hurley Avenue Nos. 802, 803, 805, 807, 809, 811, and 813 to perform improvements in the neighborhood.

The shutdown is scheduled for Thursday, June 4, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. In the event of rain, the work will be rescheduled for Friday, June 5, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Residents may notice discolored water or air in the lines following the shutdown. Running cold water for a few minutes usually clears discoloration.
