The Wentzville Water Division will execute urgent repair work on the City’s main water supply transmission main beginning Monday, March 30. This work is taking place before the peak summer usage months to reduce potential impacts on customers; however, customers may still experience reduced pressure during the repair period. We anticipate the repair will be complete within 72 hours. If you have questions, please call (636) 639-2121 during regular business hours.
