The City of Statesville is responding to a significant water main break near the US-21 crossing at Third Creek that is causing water service outages in the southern portions of the city, particularly in the Hidden Lakes and Wallace Springs areas. Due to the location of the break and the configuration of the water system, water service has been shut off to multiple neighborhoods to allow crews to assess the damage and complete necessary repairs.

City crews are actively working to repair the water main and restore service as quickly and safely as possible. At this time, there is no estimated restoration time, and residents in affected areas should prepare for an extended water outage that could last throughout the day.
