PEORIA, Ill. – All that’s left now is to fix the road.
Illinois American Water says repairs have been made to the water main that broke Wednesday afternoon at Adams and Liberty downtown.
Repairs to the road, the utility says, are next, and that could take a few days. One lane of traffic is open in the area.
The 22 buildings losing water because of the break should have their service back on, but Illinois American says a boil order is in effect – meaning, water has to be brought to a rolling boil for at least five minutes before using it in cooking or drinking.
