Repairs have been made, according to Montgomery County Environmental Services Public Information Officer Megan O’Leary. There is no boil advisory in place.
“If any residents experienced low water pressure this morning, it should be back to normal now,” she said.
Forrer Boulevard was closed to through traffic between South Smithville Road and Whitlock Place. People living in the area were still able to drive out of the closed section.
Montgomery County Water Services said that the break was larger than anticipated, and the repair had taken longer than the original estimate.
Crews were initially unable to put down salt because water was still flowing from the break, O’Leary said.
