Water main break causes road closure in Meridian Township

HASLETT, Mich. (WILX) - Officials advised drivers to avoid a road around Lake Lansing due to a water main break.

On Saturday, Meridian Township officials told drivers to stay away from East Lake Drive between Mack Avenue and Hickory Island Street due to a water main break. The water main break happened at 4:45 a.m. and people were without running water off Lake Drive.

This was on the north side of Lake Lansing.

According to officials, about 15 to 25 water main breaks happen a year.

Authorities said the road will be closed throughout the afternoon while emergency contractors come out and clean the water up on other properties.
