A 6-inch water main break that shut down 40th Street in Pittsburgh’s Lawrenceville neighborhood was repaired early Friday morning.

Officials said the break, which occurred about 5:20 p.m. Thursday near the 40th Street Bridge, was patched by 1:15 a.m. Friday.

“There have been no residential customers that have been affected by this,” PWSA spokesperson Rebecca Zito said Thursday night, noting that one assisted living facility was affected. “We’re working with their facilities manager so that they have the water they need. So, we have delivered cases of water on pallets to them.”
