MERIDIAN, Idaho — A water main under Ten Mile Road broke and is impacting traffic.
In an update around noon, when the main was supposed to be fixed, the City of Meridian announced that the problem is still ongoing.
The city believes that the water main break will impact evening commuters. Ada County Highway District is on the scene helping to direct traffic, while crews continue to work.
Expect delays in the area, and using alternative routes are suggested. Use caution in the area.
The City of Meridian said that crews are on the scene working to repair the break on the morning of September 19. The City of Meridian said they shut off the water main to work on repairs.
The two northbound lanes on Ten Mile Road just north of Cherry Lane were closed while repairs take place. Northbound traffic has been redirected to the center lane.
"Thankfully our crews were able to locate the break quickly," said Public Works Director Laurelei McVey. "We extend our gratitude to commuters for their patience as we ensure this is managed this morning."
Drivers along Ten Mile Road should allow extra time for their commute or take a detour. Local residence and business access will be maintained.
