Water Line Break

Water line break today at 2200 S. Harvard Ave. :
Two lanes closed, some businesses out of water

A 24-inch water line broke at 2200 S. Harvard Ave. at about 1 p.m. this afternoon (Thursday, Sept. 16).

City Water Distribution personnel have begun to repair the break, which caused pavement to buckle in the northbound lanes of Harvard Avenue. Traffic has been moved to the southbound lanes, with one lane open in each direction.

Seven businesses between 2200 S. Harvard Ave. and 2400 S. Harvard Ave. are without water service until Friday afternoon, Sept. 17. No residences are affected.

Once the water line has been repaired, a contractor will repair the street. The street repair will take about a week, and all lanes will be reopened by Friday, Sept. 24.
