Morningside and Highland Park residents who have been without water since Thursday night should have their water returning this morning, according the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority.
Residents in those neighborhoods have been without water since around 9:50 p.m. Thursday, according to PWSA spokesman Nick Letzkus. He could not say how many customers were impacted.
Letzkus told the Tribune-Review around 9 a.m. that water would be restored “any moment now” for those customers.
There are no advisories for those customers, he said, and impacted households do not need to boil their water when it returns.
The authority was repairing a water main break at the 5000 block of Stanton Avenue Thursday, Letzkus said. They initially expected the work to impact only the people on that block.
“Obviously, more were affected than that,” he said, though he did not know the scope of the outage.
Letzkus said the broader outage was because of “some sort of complication that occurred” in repairing the water main break, which was repaired overnight.
