NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Metro Water Services finished working to repair a water main break near S. New Hope road in Nashville Sunday night.
The MWS map shows "repair in progress" at the bottom.
Erin Evans, Councilmember for Hermitage (District 12) where the break happened, says the repair means at least an 8 hour outage for some in the area.

Evans also said on Facebook that those who are seeing water return to main pressure, MWS recommends letting it run for a little while to clear the lines, and says there is no need to boil water.
We have not yet heard from officials what caused the break yet. We will update you as soon as we have more information.

September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
