MONTPELIER — The City reported this morning that the Water Department has shut off the water on Liberty Street because of another leak.
This will impact the areas of Hubbard Street, Liberty Street and Heaton Street.
Department of Public Works Director Todd Law said that the cause of the leak is not yet known.
"In the past few weeks there have been a few breaks," Law said in an email. "Causes range from split pipe, holes worn in pipe and another was a service saddle (water connection for home) deteriorated."
Once workers can get to the leak, Law said, they'll be able to determine the cause.
Also, the hydrants on Fuller Street, Liberty Street and Graham Terrace will be out of service until the leak is repaired.
UPDATE 5:27 p.m.: The city has restored water service to residents and hydrants are back in service.
