HOUSTON - Houston Public Works is performing emergency repairs due to a break in a 54-inch wastewater line that impacted a water line and other utilities along Main Street and University Boulevard. Several lanes of traffic at this intersection are closed as Houston Water makes these repairs. Houston Police are assisting our crews by performing traffic control in the area. Commuters and patients should plan accordingly and use alternate routes as crews work diligently to complete the repairs.
