Stafford County Utilities has introduced a new online tool to provide residents with real-time updates on water outages and repair work. The interactive map, available at utilities.staffordcountyva.gov/outage, shows active outages, affected areas, and repair status. The tool aims to enhance communication and transparency for the county’s more than 40,000 water customers.
The full press release:
Stafford County Utilities has launched a new communication tool to keep customers informed about water outages and repairs. A water outage map is now available at utilities.staffordcountyva.gov/outage, providing residents real-time updates on water outages and repairs.
Here’s how it works:
- Active, confirmed outages appear as clickable dots.
- Click the dot for the corresponding outage for details like the number of affected homes/businesses, repair status, and any related road closures.
- Once service is restored, the incident disappears from the map. (Road or landscape repairs may still be ongoing.)
Depending on the circumstances related to the incident, restoration of roads, landscapes, etc., may still be in progress and may take additional time.If you view the map and the header reads “no active outages,” there are most likely no ongoing incidents. If the map doesn’t show an outage but you suspect a problem, don’t hesitate to call Stafford County Utilities Customer Service at:
- Business Hours on Weekdays: (540) 658-8695
- Nights/Weekends/Holidays: (540) 658-4857
