Interactive map details where 2018 pipeline
upgrades are occurring and more
Pennsylvania American Water today unveiled the updated 2018
version of its web-based infrastructure map to show customers where
the dollars from their monthly bills are flowing. To coincide with
National Infrastructure Week that runs May 14-21, the company
launched the interactive map displaying planned water and
wastewater pipe improvements along with project details.
“Our team created this innovative tool for customers to see
their water bills at work, and they will notice we have another
active year of infrastructure upgrades underway across the state,”
said Pennsylvania American Water President Jeffrey L. McIntyre. “We
are rolling out the 2018 version of the map during National
Infrastructure Week to reinforce the importance of replacing aging
water and wastewater systems to ensure that our communities
continue to receive quality, reliable service.”
Accessible from any computer or mobile device, the map appears
on Pennsylvania American Water’s website under the Water Quality
tab and System Updates page at
https://amwater.com/paaw/water-quality/system-updates. It features
summaries of pipe upgrades, total dollars invested and length of
pipe being installed. Users can navigate the map by panning and
zooming similar to other popular web-based maps. By clicking on
individual projects, users can see specific project details
including affected streets. Projects shown on the map are
expected to be completed by the end of the year.
McIntyre said 52 cents of every dollar of the customer’s monthly
bill is reinvested into system improvements and replacing aging
infrastructure. “Because most pipe projects are underground,
customers are usually not aware of the improvements taking place.
That is why the interactive map is so helpful to inform customers
about upgrades in their area,” he said.
