Crews were able to get the taps running again by 8 a.m. Wednesday.
Wortley Road is closed at the intersection of Elmwood Avenue while crews make their repairs. The cause of the break isn’t known but officials say its not uncommon for this time of year.
The line in question runs from Beaconsfield Avenue down to Commissioners road, a distance spanning over 10 blocks.
It’s unclear how many residents were affected by the water main break.
