The PWSA will shut a 20-inch water main and Penn and Braddock avenues from midnight to 6 a.m. Sunday.

Crews will monitor pressure after the shutdown by putting pressure gauges on fire hydrants in Regent Square and Swisshelm Park, according to the PWSA. Residents on Penfield Place and Penfield Court will have no water for about an hour between midnight and 6 a.m.; those residents are being notified by phone. Residents in Regent Square and Swisshelm Park may have low water pressure and cloudy water during the shutdown.

If residents have low pressure or interruption of service for more than an hour, they are asked to call PWSA at 412-255-2429 or 412-255-2409.
