GREENSBORO, N.C. — A 8-inch water main break in the 200 block of West Market Street has left about 20 water customers without service and closed one lane of West Market between Elam Avenue to North Lindell Street.
City crews are onsite until repairs are complete and water service has been restored, which is expected to be around 5 p.m.
Once service is restored, customers should run their cold water in a bathtub or outdoor faucet to remove any air or discoloration from the service line.
This section of West Market Street is expected to reopen by 5 p.m. Drivers should use an alternate route to avoid affected areas.
For other water and sewer emergencies, 24-hour contact area, water main breaks, sewer stoppages, taste, odor, and discolored drinking water, and hydrant flushing, call 336-373-2033.
