Water Main Break Due To Extreme Cold
The Extreme Cold in Central, KY has caused major problems the last few days in way of broken water Pipes. Hundreds of structures have been affected with this issue during the Winter Storm of December 2022. Today a main water line was ruptured in downtown Lexington. Crews arrived on scene to water flowing through downtown streets as the temps were still below freezing. Public Schools, businesses and even the local Animal Shelter has been affected by the stress on pipes. On Christmas Eve alone the Lexington Fire Department responded to approximately 150 calls concerning broken pipes according to Major CJ Hauz with the Lexington Fire Department. Repairing this main line will likely take the rest of the day because of the complexity of other utilities in the area. This happened on High Street in Lexington, KY.
