Water main break in Leander now fixed, officials say

Leander Public Works crews disinfected all materials and flushed water lines, so there is no need to boil water, the City assured.

LEANDER, Texas — Crews have fixed a water main break and service has been restored to all customers affected by the break, according to the City of Leander. 

Leander Public Works crews also disinfected all materials and flushed water lines, so there is no need to boil water, the City assured. Residents experiencing air in internal plumbing should open the faucet furthest from the water meter and let it run until the faucet stops sputtering.

According to Leander police, the incident happened in the 1100 block of Lions Lair.

Neighborhoods in the Crystal Falls area were affected by the break, including Lions Lair, Medicine Hat and Sidewinder. Around 50 customers were affected.

By around 10:40 a.m., workers had removed the cracked section and were preparing to install the new section.
