ICYMI — 10,000 lead service lines have been replaced in Milwaukee — thanks to the incredible work of @milwaukeedpw - @WaterWorksMKE, our able contractors, the women and men of the trade unions, and the continued partnership of residents in the city.

We’ve got a ways to go and my administration is ramping up our efforts to remove even more — like the 2,700 we removed in 2024 alone!

We’re building a city where no child is exposed to lead via drinking water and we’re going to accomplish this big goal, together.

On March 31, we celebrate the legacy of labor leader and civil rights activist Cesar Chavez. This day is commemorated to promote service in honor of his life and his work.

@MayorMKE took a moment to thank our incredible @MKEWaterWorks employees for their hard work in fixing a record number of water main breaks caused by unseasonable conditions. From freezing temperatures to long hours, they went above and beyond to keep Milwaukee’s water flowing.

Plow drivers put in a huge effort to clear our streets as fast and efficiently as possible, but it does take time. DPW runs a very dynamic plan, and will redeploy equipment where it is needed most. Please give our drivers space and a thumbs up when they pass.

[City of Milwaukee - DPW @milwaukeedpw]

DPW is conducting a plowing operation to make sure streets are safe & passable. Please give salt & plow trucks space on the road & follow parking rules so trucks can get through all city streets to push snow back all the way to the curb.

[Milwaukee Water Works @WaterWorksMKE]

Good things are happening!

Only 45 days until we spring ahead!

[City of Milwaukee - DPW @milwaukeedpw]

We are so happy individuals and families can enjoy bikeways like the one on Hawley Road. The new jersey barriers were placed to provide better protection and that work will continue as weather allows. The same work will be done to the North Ave bridge. This is just the beginning!

Thanks to @BenJordan3 for this In-Depth reporting on why some areas of Milwaukee have more water main breaks than others.

[TMJ4 News @tmj4]

Extremely cold temperatures are to blame for a surge in Milwaukee water main breaks. Water Works says 22 breaks have happened since Friday.

@brookebikesmke We do not! Which is why we rely on alert residents to call our Water Control Center at 414-286-3710 to let us know when they see water flowing in the street or are experiencing low pressure! Always call, because low or no flow at your property could be a frozen service line!

[Milwaukee Water Works @WaterWorksMKE]

Simple, easy steps you can take to avoid frozen and bust pipe.
