Earlier today a press release was sent to the media relative to a water line break on 20th Street located in the area of Pearl Ave. This is an update to that press release as to the current situation.
Missouri American Water Company has repaired the water line and restored water service to those who were impacted. As of this afternoon, Missouri American Water Company and the City of Joplin’s Public Works Department have been working together to open the street to traffic, however the street will be reduced to two lanes in the vicinity of the repair located between Pearl and Byers. Drivers should exhibit care when approaching this area and traffic control devices are being placed to assist drivers as they travel through this area. Drivers are encouraged to use an alternative route until the street is fully repaired.
In the coming weeks, the City and Missouri American Water Company will be working together to make the necessary final repairs to the street in this location.
