TWW LSLR Program Progress Metrics

Since 2019, TWW has replaced lead service lines in Trenton, Ewing, Hamilton, and Lawrence, and determined that there are no lead service lines (LSL) in Hopewell. TWW has replaced the number of LSLs shown below. TWW will continue this to meet the 2031 deadline for replacement of 100% of lead and galvanized service lines. Construction work (Phases) is dependent on available funding.

Steps TWW has taken

  • Passed Home Rule Ordinance 24-020 and 24-022 with the Trenton City Council that made lead service line replacement in Trenton free and mandatory.

  • Partnered with the Rutgers University Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute (RU-EOHSI) for Phase 3, Isles, and East Trenton Collaborative to educate residents of other sources of lead in their homes such as in plumbing, solder, and fixtures and in dust from lead paint.

  • Completed Phase 1 & 2 of LSL replacements in 2022.

  • Obtained an EPA WIIN Grant for Phase 3.

  • Obtained Technical Assistance from NJDEP.

What you can do now!

Your assistance is very important in helping us remove the remaining LSLs by 2031. Here is how you can help:

  • Hang tight! One of the contractors listed in Table 2 will contact you directly when you are eligible for a free replacement.

  • Please refer to the maps below to see where we will be replacing service lines in the next several years. Our replacement routes are based on several factors such as planned road work and how many children there are in the area.

  • Call the hotline number for your phase/area if you have any questions regarding scheduling appointments, replacement work and restoration issues (see Table 2 below).

  • “Pipe up” and help us by checking if your service line material is listed as unknown on the online inventory. If it is listed as unknown, please fill out the online survey.

  • For general program questions (also see the FAQs page) regarding your service line material, identifying your service line, or instructions after your lead service line is replaced, please contact TWW’s Lead Hotline at 732-590-4755.
