On Monday, September 11, Bitter Creek Construction, contracted by Lynchburg Water Resources (LWR), will begin installing cellular read meters at the following locations during daylight hours:
Battery Street |
Cosby Street |
Monsview Place |
Bedford Avenue |
Dearing Street |
Pansy Street |
Belmond Street |
Early Street |
Randolph Street |
Blackford Street |
Graham Street |
Rivermont Avenue |
Byrd Street |
Hemlock Street |
Victoria Avenue |
Cabell Street |
Library Street |
Willow Street |
As crews from Bitter Creek move into a new area, each resident will be notified by a doorhanger indicating when they may expect their meter to be switched out. The process normally takes approximately 30 minutes. Employees of Bitter Creek will be wearing logoed shirts to identify themselves while conducting the meter work.
This cellular technology will enable LWR to read meters more efficiently and, at the same time, provide customers with the ability to see real-time water usage data and receive water leak alerts.
Before their meter is transitioned, residents may sign up at EyeOnWater to check their monthly water meter reading. Once the meter has been switched, customers will be able to monitor their water usage through the app or online and can also receive alerts for possible leaks on their property. These are all FREE services provided to LWR customers.
