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.
My friend and colleague Carrie Sharp had a lot of fun last week, on an adventure to a country more than three thousand miles away! She’s back now – sharing her Adventures in Iceland through stories, and incredible images of this remarkably beautiful and unique island nation (kudos to Chief Photographer Catherine Steward)! But did you know Nashville has something very important in common with Iceland? Tourism! Here, Carrie explains how a volcanic eruption decades ago helped save the country’s economy from collapse!
