A lot of the pipes are old, and need replacing, keeping the water dept pretty busy.

UPS - You are right about old pipes that need to be REPLACED. I can't believe every spring that the water dept. does patches on the lines near the Back Bay bridge. Instead of putting in 1 length of PVC and being done with it, every spring they dig up the old pipe and do patch work. Last May when I walked down to the post office the water dept. had at least 6 or 7 patches of fresh black top within a 50 feet stretch near the bridge. This is an annual occurence as can be seen by the # of patches along that stretch of the shoulder. For goodness sake, put in 1 50 foot section of new pipe and be done with it!!! (or is this job security???)
