| SPU crews responding to break in water main Photo by Pam Cross |
On Sunday, January 9, 2022 Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) crews responded to a water main break at 1st Ave NW and NW 193 St.
The break involved an 8-inch cast iron water main and impacted 22 customer water service lines. Some customers may have experienced a temporary decrease in water pressure or interruption in water service while crews were repairing the pipe.
Staff removed the broken piece of pipe and replaced it with a stainless steel pipe.
