Water main break

This break comes just days after crews fixed an 8-inch water main break at the intersection of Kingsboro Road and Lakeside Drive in Buckhead on Thursday. This is just a little over a month after widespread water main breaks caused massive issues in the City of Atlanta, enforcing a boil water advisory for nearly a week and causing major damage to nearby businesses. The water main breaks in late May and early June caused a state of emergency to be declared in the city.
