Fallsington Interconnect
One of the Authority’s goals is to improve water flow through the distribution system by eliminating dead ends such as existed in the Penn Valley section of Falls Township. In 2019, the Authority created another interconnect with its water supplier, Lower Bucks County Joint Municipal Authority at the intersection of New Falls Rd. and Fallsington-Tullytown Rd. To complete the loop with the Penn Valley neighborhood, the Authority laid pipe across New Falls Rd. and down Fallsington-Tullytown Rd. to Moon Dr. Photos show the placement of a new valve on Moon Drive and the excavation in preparation for pipe-laying along Fallsington-Tullytown Rd.
These photos show the milling of New Falls Road at its intersection with Fallsington-Tullytown Road in preparation for final paving to restore the roadway following the installation of the new water main and interconnection.
