Repairs Continue After 12-Inch Water Main Break in Hollywood, Florida

No boil-water notice is in effect due to maintained pressure.

Overview

  • A 12-inch waterline ruptured around 8:30 p.m. Thursday at Oklahoma Street and A1A, just north of Margaritaville.
  • City crews worked through the night to isolate and repair the break, with roadway contractors on standby for pavement restoration.
  • Two southbound lanes of A1A and Oklahoma Street remain closed, and drivers are being urged to avoid the area.
  • Water service interruptions affected nearby properties, prompting at least one hotel to cancel guest reservations, according to a traveler.
  • The cause of the failure has not been determined, and officials report sufficient pressure so no precautionary boil-water notice is in effect.
