Water on Wheels Brings the System to You | Madison News

Madison Water Utility is rolling out Water on Wheels—a mobile education hub in a repurposed utility truck—bringing the city’s water system to life with hands-on exhibits, interactive tools, and real-world insights. Designed for smaller events where curiosity can take root, it complements the long-running Water Wagon trailer while deepening community trust. Inside, visitors can simulate locating water main breaks, try on utility gear, sip fresh water, and enjoy nostalgic coloring sheets. Rooted in the utility’s 140-year legacy of managing 21 wells, hydrants, and reservoirs, the project also addresses real challenges like PFAS contamination and road salt intrusion. The choice of a rugged, blue-lettered utility truck? A nod to the hardworking crews who keep Madison’s taps flowing every day.
