Water Main Breaks Disrupt Traffic, Water Access Across Multiple U.S. Locations

Multiple water main breaks across different regions have caused significant disruptions to traffic and water services. In Albuquerque, a 20-inch water line break has closed Mountain Road NW between 8th and 12th streets, leaving some residents without water while crews assess repairs. Vernon faces a similar issue where a break at 6671 Jade Road has shut off water to about 20 properties, with no estimated restoration time provided. Burns Lake's water main break near Highway 35 and Highway 16 has reduced traffic lanes and left some properties without water, with residents advised to run cold water until it clears once service resumes. In Orange County, a water main break on County Road 535 has blocked two southbound lanes, prompting a precautionary boil water advisory for affected customers. Officials in all areas continue to work on isolating the breaks and restoring service, but timelines remain uncertain.
