CVWD Grapples with Line Problems

A water pump line issue occurred Wednesday morning in the area of Pennsylvania and Honolulu avenues. Crescenta Valley Water District (CVWD) was on scene and successfully isolated valves that continued providing water service for customers. No customers were affected by the break; however, traffic in the area was slowed. The westbound side of Honolulu Avenue was shut down while repairs were being made, according to a CVWD spokesperson. 

Unfortunately, CVWD had another, more significant, break. A 12” line at Community and Ramsdell avenues affected pedestrian and vehicle traffic especially in the area of Crescenta Valley High School. Neighbors in the immediate area were notified. CVWD estimated the repairs would go into the night, according to CVWD.
