Amsterdam Splash Pads Back Online Soon

Amsterdam’s splash pads are temporarily closed due to a major water line break from a century-old pipe, causing brief treatment interruptions and urging residents to skip lawn watering this weekend—thanks to hot weather. While crews worked overnight to refill storage tanks, progress is strong, with full capacity expected by Saturday night. The city’s recent GIS mapping effort aims to speed up future repairs. Meanwhile, the new Boardwalk splash pad remains shut after a child slipped, but contractors plan to repaint the surface for better grip—reopenings expected this week. City officials still advise wearing grippy shoes at all splash pads until everything’s fully restored. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
