HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The right-turn lane off East 17th Avenue into the Uptown Hutch Mall campus is closed after a water main ruptured on Saturday.
According to Hutchinson Public Works, the break was on a 10-inch water line that was installed in 1964. The break did not disrupt service to any city customers. Public Works water maintenance staff repaired the break and put the water line back in service by 5 p.m.
The right-turn lane is closed until the street can be repaired. The street work is expected to be completed by the end of the day on Friday, Jan. 28.
The cost to repair the water line and street damage is approximately $4,500.
