Several SW Michigan communities under boil advisory due to water main break

(WNDU) - Multiple communities in southwest Michigan are currently under a boil advisory until further notice due to a major water main break.

According to a Facebook post from Lincoln Charter Township, the break happened near Marquette Woods and Hickory Creek. The following communities are under the boil advisory:

- Lincoln Township
- Royalton Township
- The portion of St. Joseph Township west of the St. Joseph River
- Stevensville

Officials are urging you to vigorously boil any water used for drinking — including water used to make ice, cooking, or oral hygiene — for at least one minute.

System pressure has been restored, but there is currently no timetable for when the advisory will be lifted.

In the meantime, Lincoln Township’s splash pad is closed until the advisory is lifted.
