UPDATE: No Word Yet on When Water Will Be Restored in WR

Jun. 12--WARNER ROBINS -- Officials in Warner Robins still don't know when customers without water will see their service restored.

Joe McDuffie, water superintendent for the city of Warner Robins, said this morning that utility workers are trying to determine what caused the break and restore service as quickly as possible.

McDuffie said he was hesitant to guess the number of customers without water, noting that it is a major break in a 12-inch water line.

The break at Moody Road and Russell Parkway slowed rush hour traffic morning, with the water line break at a major intersection at Moody Road and Russell Parkway, said Houston County sheriff's Sgt. Robb McInvale of the 911 Center. Calls to 911 came from water customers in the South Oaks subdivision off Moody Road and from Anchor Glass of Ga. 247, McInvale said. Residents along Feagin Mill Road also reported being out of water, he said.
