A water main break on Olympic Boulevard between Doheny and Wetherly Drives on Monday has impacted power in a portion of Beverly Hills.
City crews and representatives from Southern California Edison (SCE) have been working onsite throughout the day to repair the line. All water service is expected to be restored by this evening.
Approximately 250,000 gallons of water traveled from a vault on Olympic Blvd into an SCE substation overnight. SCE is redirecting power through the grid to provide temporary power, but full restoration is not expected until Tuesday.
“We appreciate residents’ patience as we work diligently to make the repair,” said Director of Public Works Shana Epstein. “We understand this is incredibly frustrating and we are utilizing all resources to resolve the situation as quickly as possible.”
Portions of Olympic Boulevard may have temporary lane reductions as repair work continues.
