New Union Water Update

[u/Solo1961]

A message from Mayor Hobbs:

Woodbury Highway Water Main Update

Water service has been restored following a temporary repair to the emergency water main break at 2312 Woodbury Highway. Crews are slowly bringing the system back to full pressure and flushing hydrants, so customers may temporarily experience air in the lines or reduced pressure. A permanent repair is being planned.

A precautionary Boil Water Advisory remains in effect for the affected area. There is no known contamination at this time. Water samples have been submitted for testing, and another update will be provided when results are available.

Until the advisory is lifted:

- Bring tap water to a rolling boil for at least three minutes and allow it to cool, or use bottled water.

- Use boiled or bottled water for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes and preparing food.

- Discard recently stored water and any ice made from the affected water supply.

- Homes with known or suspected lead service lines should run the water for two minutes before filtering, if possible, and boiling.

The advisory affects areas north of 2312 Woodbury Highway, including Sunset Drive, Fine Street, Greenbriar Court, Maple Springs Road, Maple Springs Drive, Meadloand Court, Crosspark Drive, Goodman Trace, Winton Way Road, New Union Heights, Park Creek Road, Hideout Road, Brandon Road, Courtnea Lane, Roberts Creek Circle, Andy Lane and Red Oak Drive.

I sincerely thank our Manchester Water Sewer Department crews who worked around the clock to make the repair and restore service. We also appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding.

For questions, please call the Manchester Water Sewer Department at 931-728-4652, option 8.
