SUMMARY: Pedal’s mayor announced significant upgrades to nearly 1,600 water meters, up from just 80 a few months ago, aiming to improve the efficiency of reading water usage. The new dial and transponder units enable city workers to automatically gather data from vehicles, reducing the need for manual readings. So far, around 600 meters have been updated, and the city plans to repair all 3,600 meters in total. The mayor emphasized the importance of completing the project thoroughly for enhanced efficiency, with expectations for the work to continue into early next year.
