Our Organization

Madison Water Utility began serving our

community in 1882, but today, we’re looking

toward the future. MWU is working to

protect the city’s critical water resources and

infrastructure through innovation, research,

technology, and outstanding customer service

and outreach. We were the first utility in the

state to use structural relining techniques to

rehabilitate deteriorating water mains. We

were the first large utility in the state to implement Advanced Metering Infrastructure technology.

And we were the first utility in the state to bring detailed, personalized water use data directly to our

customers online. Our research partnerships with the University of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin

Geological Survey provide us with a deeper understanding of our water system and aquifer,

supporting our mission to provide clean, safe, reliable water and fire protection for every person in

the city.

Our Community

Madison is consistently ranked as one of the best places to live in the country. A flourishing restaurant

scene, more than 200 miles of bike paths and trails, excellent healthcare, a world renowned research

university, and five beautiful lakes make our community a thriving, vibrant place to call home.

But don’t just take our word for it…
