UPDATE: Water Outage Tuesday in West Elkins EXTENDED
2/22: Water Outage Extended
February 22nd, 2022 | 5:49 pm
Water outage announced here will continue through the evening due to difficulties encountered underground. Outage area now includes Tygart Valley Mall because a second line needed to be secured.
=========================
On Tuesday, starting at 10 a.m., water customers near West Central Street, Wilson Lane, and Vernon Avenue, including Mountain Memories Assisted Living, will experience a water outage.
Elkins water system employees will be terminating an abandoned section of 18-inch line near Wilson Lane, behind the Tygart Valley Mall. Water service to Elkins Middle School will not be affected.
This work is projected to be completed during business hours but may be extended as a result of conditions encountered underground.
The approximate affected area is outlined in red in the below map.
