A water main has broken under North Astor Street between Main Street and Bridge Street. Customers along North Astor Street are without water. Water Department personnel are making the necessary preparations to repair the water main overnight tonight beginning at about 7 p.m. While the repairs are being made, a wider section of lower Main Street will be without water. The wider area is expected to include:
North side of Main Street from North Dutcher Street down to North Astor Street
All of North Astor Street
All of North Buckhout Street
Possibly All of North Cottenet Street depending on how the repairs go
Every effort will be made to minimize the amount of time that customers are without water, but customers should anticipate being out of water for up to 8 hours starting at 7 p.m. tonight.
