Police have issued a boil water advisory that will remain in effect until further notice
LYNDHURST, New Jersey (WABC) -- Crews have repaired a broken water main in Lyndhurst, NJ.
The break was reported at the intersection of Ridge Road and Valley Brook Avenue.
Water pressure has returned to normal for all residents in the town, according to officials.
Water should be running clear but officials say if homes are still seeing brown liquid come from their faucets, they should let the water run until it has cleared.
The boil water advisory that was put in place on Tuesday remains in effect.
The advisory could be lifted as soon as January 23. A wide notification about the status of the water will be sent to residents after sample test results have been received.
Meanwhile, the roadway that had been blocked due to repairs has since reopened.
NewsCopter 7 was over the scene Tuesday evening where water was seen flowing.
Police said residents in the surrounding area had little to no water pressure, and brown water.
The town first issued a boil water advisory shortly after the break was reported.
