According to Water and Sewer manager Eric Carty, crews finished repairing a water main break on Eastview Road just before noon on Thursday.

“The main was fixed and returned to service in under two hours,” Carty wrote via email. “Crews will be grabbing lunch and then preparing for a long-duration snow event.”

Carty cautioned that residents might see some air or discoloration in their water.

Later in the day, the DPW reported fixing a second water leak, this one a service line on Walker Street.
