Online Staff Report

A water main break near Tay and Cedar streets in Rockford is expected to be repaired by noon, Thursday, Oct. 4.

An 80-year-old water main in the area of Tay and Cedar wore out around 5 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 3, leaving many west-side residents without water. The main break also sent water flooding into nearby streets.

Residents in the area between Tay and Avon streets and Cedar and Selden streets, along with some residents on Curve Street, will remain on a 24-hour boil alert after the main is repaired.

Affected residents will receive updates from the city through reverse 911 calls.

Customer service questions may be directed to (815) 987-5712.
