South Cotner Boulevard between "A" and South 56th streets is expected to remain closed through Friday due to a water main break last night. Piedmont Road also will remain closed at the intersection with South Cotner. The break occurred at that intersection because of the failure of two aging valves. All access to local residents will be maintained.

All water service in the area was restored by 11:30 p.m. Wednesday. Questions regarding water service can be directed to Steve Owen, Lincoln Water System, at 441-5925. Questions about street closures can be directed to Greg Topil, Engineering Services, at 416-5150.
