Water Main Break Shuts Off Water, Ices Road

A water main break in northwest Washington has shut off water for some residents and made roads icy on Saturday morning.

The D.C. Water and Sewer Authority said the break occurred in the 1800 block of Harvard Street, Northwest. They said the water is turned off in that area.

Roads are closed along Harvard Street between 18th Street Northwest and Adams Mill Road. There is also no northbound traffic in the 2100 block of 18th Street Northwest.

News4’s Derrick Ward said Harvard Street is extremely icy. Crews are trying to use salt to keep the road passable, but caution should be used.

No word on how many people are without water or how long repairs will take.
