Updated: Water main break identified on Hutchinson Road

Update 12:13 PM:

Crews have located the damaged water pipe, and it is in the process of being replaced. According to City officials, the work is anticipated to be completed by 3 PM.

Original Story:

The City of Williams Lake has identified a water main break in the Hodgson Road/Wotzke Drive area on Hutchinson Road.

The City says the west side may experience some service loss because of the break. The break interferes with filling the Woodland Drive reservoir, and affected areas include the Westridge and Golf Course subdivisions, Terra Ridge, and alone Wotzke Drive and Hodgson Road.

Residents in the affected areas are asked to conserve water wherever possible until further notice.

City crews are currently working with a contractor to repair the line, and updates will be provided once available.
