Water main break leads to possible water problems for Columbia residents

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The City of Columbia Utilities is alerting customers about a water main break that could lead to water problems.

According to a release from the city, crews were replacing valves on West Worley Street and rerouted water during the repairs. This is when a 16-inch water main near the University of Missouri campus broke.

The City said residents near the area may have a low water pressure or water discoloration due to the break.

ABC 17 News saw Water and Light crews on the scene working to repair the break around 1:30 Tuesday afternoon.
