LIVE UPDATES: Crews continue working on major water main breaks in downtown,

Two large water main breaks caused customers to be without water in a large area of northwest Atlanta, from downtown to westside to midtown to southwest Atlanta. A boil water advisory is in effect in parts of metro Atlanta.

The first of which was at the intersection of Joseph E. Boone Boulevard and James P. Brawley Drive around 8 a.m. A spokesperson from the Atlanta Department of Watershed Management told Channel 2 Investigative Reporter Mark Winne that the break was a 48-inch transmission line that directly connected to the city’s water treatment plant.

The Atlanta Department of Watershed Management initially said the water disruption would be city-wide, but then clarified it is limited to the impacted area.
