The Newton Town Council announced in a notice published September 28, 2026, that a main water line will be replaced for one block along 100 West between 200 North and 100 North. The project is scheduled to take place during the week of September 28 through October 2, 2026.
According to the notice, the replacement is necessary because the existing transite pipe was installed around 1970. This section is one of the last remaining blocks of transite pipe within the Newton Town boundaries. The town noted that new water connections cannot be added to the old transite pipe.
Water service may be disrupted while new connections are made during the project. Potential water shut off times will be posted on the Newton website, www.newtonutah.gov, when known.
