Water Main Break in the area of 890 Great Pond Road

The DPW is responding to a Water Main break on Great Pond Road.   Traffic in the area will be detoured around the impacted area and there will be some water pressure issues due to the break.  Crews are on scene and working to limit disruptions, but it will be some time before water is restored to the area.
