Water Main Update: Ruptured Main Isolated. State of Emergency remains in place.

Veolia has isolated the ruptured main. Repairs to the 16-inch main will continue into the night. Veolia reports residents will begin to see water return and water pressure increase over the next few hours. Veolia also warns that as repairs are made, due to fluctuations in water pressure, future water main breaks are possible as the system stabilizes. 

Hoboken is still under a State of Emergency. Please remember to avoid Southwest Hoboken. If you must enter or exit the City, please do so from the North end of Hoboken.
