Neighborhood Lead Line Replacement Projects

In Construction Lead

We target all lead lines in a geographic space, passing over non-lead service lines. When a private service line is made of lead, we will work with the property owner to replace the line at no direct cost.

Progress & Status

24%
Construction Complete

Since Pittsburgh Water's lead line replacement program first began in 2016, we have replaced thousands of lead service lines and are on track to replace all residential public and private lead service lines in our service area by 2027 – at no direct cost to our customers. 

Visit our Lead Information page to learn more about our Community Lead Response program and get the facts about lead in drinking water.
