Help Cambridge Fire Department Keep Neighborhood Fire Hydrants Clear of Snow This Year

caution sign The information on this page may be outdated as it was published 2 years ago.

Consider helping the Cambridge Fire Department out this year by "adopting" a hydrant to shovel out during winter weather.

Immediately following a snow storm, firefighters will be out on the streets clearing the hydrants in their districts, but it takes time. We have approximately 1,900 hydrants in the City of Cambridge. It is a big task that can be completed more quickly with community assistance.

Learn how you can Adopt a Hydrant.

And Thank You!
