BEDFORD HEIGHTS, Ohio. — Cleveland Water has lifted a boil water advisory for customers in parts of Twinsburg, Macedonia and Northfield after a water main break in Bedford Heights.
The break is located on Solon Road near the Interstate 271 overpass. Solon Road is closed from Randolph Road to Eldridge Boulevard.
Police say water gushed five to seven feet into the air before crews slowed it down.
Cleveland Water said the break happened late Thursday night on a 12-inch main. People living in Bedford Heights and Oakwood currently have no water.
Cleveland Water said there was no evidence of contamination. Cleveland Water issued the advisory as a precaution.
Customers in surrounding areas might see discolored or cloudy water for the next few days. Officials say that water is safe to drink without boiling.
Cleveland Water said a 5-minute full-house flush of all cold-water faucets, tubs and showers at the same time, with aerator screens off, may help clear the cloudiness.
Cleveland Water crews are on the scene working to fix the break. There is no estimated time for a repair.
