Overview

  • An overnight water main break in Schaumburg led to street closures and a temporary shutdown before crews restored service around 4 a.m.
  • The Village of Schaumburg issued a boil order for more than a dozen locations, including Medieval Times at 2001 N. Roselle Road.
  • Officials say the precautionary boil notice could last 24 to 36 hours as repairs continue and water quality tests are pending.
  • Medieval Times canceled its next scheduled show out of an abundance of caution under the boil order.
  • Repair crews remain on site monitoring the system and will lift the boil notice once safety tests confirm water quality.
