Crews Working to Fix Another Water Main Break in Jersey City

JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) —

Residents in Jersey City are dealing with another water main break, the third one to occur there in as many days.

The latest break, on Neptune Avenue, has left nearly 100 customers without water service. It’s not clear when service will be restored to their homes, but officials say no “boil water” advisories have been issued.

Officials have not disclosed what caused the main breaks that have occurred in recent days.

A 12-inch break on Jan. 1 flooded West Side Avenue between Culver and Pollock avenues. Repairs to that main were completed Saturday, shortly before another main broke in the same area on Saturday afternoon.

Service has mostly been restored to residents and businesses affected by the first two water main breaks.
